Uterine Fibroid Embolization Survey in Canada: Challenges, Opportunities, and Differences in Practices Across the Country.

To assess the current practices surrounding Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) in Canada. An online survey was sent to Canadian Association for Interventional Radiology (CAIR) members. It included questions on symptoms prompting UFE, patient awareness, investigation, UFE settings, the number of UFE procedures, and post-UFE care.

Small Particle DEBIRI TACE as Salvage Therapy in Patients with Liver Dominant Colorectal Cancer Metastasis: Retrospective Analysis of Safety and Outcomes.

The aim of this study was to examine the safety and efficacy of 40 µm and 75 µm calibrated irinotecan-eluting beads (DEBIRI-TACE) for the treatment of colorectal cancer metastases. We conducted a retrospective review of 36 patients with unresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer who were treated with DEBIRI-TACE between 2017 to 2020. Patients who received at least one session of DEBIRI were included in our analysis.

Feasibility of shear wave sonoelastography to detect endoleak and evaluate thrombus organization after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of shear wave sonoelastography (SWS) for endoleak detection and thrombus characterization of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) after endovascular repair (EVAR).

Materials And Methods: Participants who underwent EVAR were prospectively recruited between November 2014 and March 2016 and followed until March 2019. Elasticity maps of AAA were computed using SWS and compared to computed tomography angiography (CTA) and color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS).

Assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma treatment response with LI-RADS: a pictorial review.

Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) play critical roles for assessing treatment response of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after locoregional therapy. Interpretation is challenging because posttreatment imaging findings depend on the type of treatment, magnitude of treatment response, time interval after treatment, and other factors. To help radiologists interpret and report treatment response in a clear, simple, and standardized manner, the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) has developed a Treatment Response (LR-TR) algorithm.
