Edge-and-corner (E&C) pathology is defined as clinically relevant findings in diagnostic imaging that are located at the physical periphery of studies and thus easily overlooked. Satisfaction of search is a perceptive interpretation error which can compound the difficulty of detecting E&C lesions. Guiding veterinary students to systematically identify these lesions would likely benefit their training, and the authors sought to determine whether teaching the concept of satisfaction of search could influence students' ability to detect E&C lesions.

Bronchoscopic MWA is under development and evaluation in the clinical setting. We previously reported on the development of a bronchoscopy-guided MWA system integrated with clinical virtual bronchoscopy and navigation and demonstrated the feasibility of transbronchial MWA, using a maximum power of 60 W at the catheter input.

Six years previously, the cat had a bilateral perineal herniorrhaphy with cystopexy and pubic osteotomy. At presentation, survey radiographs and a positive-contrast vaginourethrocystogram were performed, which revealed cystolithiasis and recurrent bilateral perineal hernias with bladder retroflexion.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study used 5% Medicare data to evaluate UI retreatment outcomes of women undergoing physical therapy (PT), pessary treatment, or sling surgery. The data set used inpatient, outpatient, and carrier claims from 2008 to 2016 in women 66 years and older with fee-for-service coverage.
