Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how effective and reliable percutaneous endobiliary brush biopsy is for diagnosing intrabiliary lesions in patients with biliary strictures, which can result from various conditions.
- - Conducted from January 2022 to April 2023, the research involved 16 patients, primarily male (62.5%), with a mean age of about 68 years; the procedure was successfully completed in all cases, showing an 87.5% diagnostic success rate.
- - Results indicated that 50% of the patients were diagnosed with malignancies, while 37.5% had benign lesions; complications included cases of liver abscess in 12.5% of the patients, highlighting the method's

Article Synopsis
- Thyroid nodules are common health concerns, with various methods available for diagnosis and treatment.
- Interventional radiology techniques, such as fine-needle aspiration, core needle biopsy, and imaging-guided treatments, are effective in determining if nodules are benign or malignant.
- The study focuses on the evolving role of interventional radiology in managing thyroid nodules, highlighting techniques like aspiration, ablation, and embolization.
Objective: Our aim in this study is to compare patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a rheumatologic disease that can cause eye involvement and the normal population in terms of orbital Doppler findings, which is an inexpensive and easily applicable method that can be used in early diagnosis and follow-up.
Methods: The study was planned prospectively. The data of patients with AS were compared to those of age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers.
