Objectives: To assess whether a computer-aided detection (CADe) system could serve as a learning tool for radiology residents in chest X-ray (CXR) interpretation.

Methods: Eight radiology residents were asked to interpret 500 CXRs for the detection of five abnormalities, namely pneumothorax, pleural effusion, alveolar syndrome, lung nodule, and mediastinal mass. After interpreting 150 CXRs, the residents were divided into 2 groups of equivalent performance and experience.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the technical success rate, the selectivity of transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE), the complication rate, the radiation dose given to the patients and the hospitalization stay between TACE performed using femoral artery approach (FAA) and TACE performed using radial artery approach (RAA) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Methods: Between June 2020 and April 2022, 49 patients with HCC who underwent 116 TACEs (75 using FAA and 41 using RAA) were included. Differences in technical success rate, selectivity of micro-catheterization, radiation dose given to the patients, fluoroscopy time, hospitalization stay duration, and complication rate were compared between FAA and RAA using Fisher exact or Student tests.
