[Delayed Cardiac Tamponade After Blunt Chest Trauma].

Delayed cardiac tamponade following blunt chest trauma is a rare incident, and we provide a report including a literature review for further discussion. The patient is a 56-year-old male. He fell off a motorcycle and sustained contusions to the left side of his chest.

Synchrotron-based infrared microspectroscopy unveils the biomolecular response of healthy and tumour cell lines to neon minibeam radiation therapy.

Radioresistant tumours remain complex to manage with current radiotherapy (RT) techniques. Heavy ion beams were proposed for their treatment given their advantageous radiobiological properties. However, previous studies with patients resulted in serious adverse effects in the surrounding healthy tissues.

Ophthalmic Artery Feeders in Meningioma Reduce the Effectiveness of Transarterial Embolization With n-Butyl Cyanoacrylate.

Background: N-butyl cyanoacrylate (n-BCA) is often used for preoperative transarterial embolization (TAE) of meningiomas. However, factors affecting the embolization effect with n-BCA remain unclear. This study aimed to clarify the factors associated with the embolization rate after TAE using n-BCA in meningioma, from the aspect of feeder architecture.

Dynamic susceptibility contrast‑enhanced perfusion magnetic resonance imaging parameters for predicting promoter methylation and prognostic value in newly diagnosed patients with glioblastoma.

O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation is an important clinical biomarker of newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Previous radiological studies using dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) perfusion have aimed to predict methylation status non-invasively in gliomas with radiological characteristics. The possibility of predicting methylation status using DSC-MRI perfusion with a radiological approach remains controversial.
