Imaging and endovascular management of haemoptysis in congenital heart disease.

Haemoptysis, a rare but serious complication that can arise in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), necessitates prompt diagnosis and specialised care. The radiologist plays a critical role in this scenario, including identifying the source of haemoptysis, devising treatment plans, and delivering endovascular interventions. This article highlights the importance of imaging techniques, especially computed tomography (CT), in identifying the cause of haemoptysis and the therapeutic value of endovascular interventions.

Technical Success, Midterm Primary Patency, and Factors Affecting Primary Patency of Subintimal Angioplasty Followed by Vasculomimetic Stenting for Trans-Atlantic Intersociety Consensus II C and D Femoropopliteal Arterial Disease-A Prospective Study.

 The best option among the endovascular options in long, complex femoropopliteal (FP) lesions, and factors affecting the patency have yet to be well described. There are few studies describing the mid- and long-term patency of endovascular stents in long-segment FP occlusions.  This study aimed to determine the technical success and mid-term patency of subintimal angioplasty with vasculomimetic stenting in Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC) C and D FP disease.

Role of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging in response assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) - A prospective study.

Introduction: Response evaluation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) currently is based on arterial phase enhancement which doesn't take into microstructural changes in the tumor after trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE).

Aim: This prospective study was conducted to assess the feasibility and efficacy of intravascular incoherent motion imaging (IVIM) in response evaluation of HCC after TACE. 39 cirrhotic patients with 48 HCC underwent MR imaging 1 week within and 6weeks after TACE.

False lumen regurgitation fraction and energy loss in the aorta measured using four-dimensional flow MRI to predict expansion of acute uncomplicated type B aortic dissection: a prospective study.

Aim: To assess the relationship between four-dimensional (4D)-flow-derived false lumen regurgitation fraction (FLRF) and energy loss (EL) percentage in the descending thoracic aorta (DTA) with the aortic growth rate in uncomplicated type B aortic dissection (uTBAD).

Methods And Materials: In this prospective study performed on 15 patients with uTBAD, computed tomography (CT) angiography and 4D-flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed at the initial presentation with follow-up CT at 2 years. 4D-flow parameters, including maximum peak systolic velocity (PSV), FLRF, and percentage of EL were measured using Circle CV42.
