A transarterial left hepatic artery radioembolization involving 90Y microspheres was performed on a cirrhotic man with hypermetabolic 18F-FDG segment III hepatocellular carcinoma. During the 18F-FDG PET/CT follow-up, the disappearance of the hypermetabolic lesion was initially observed. Then, a focal segment III hypermetabolism reappeared mimicking a recurrence before disappearing without any treatment.

We previously reported that whole body bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measurements are correlated to some hemorheologic factors, suggesting a relationship between viscosity factors and electric properties of flowing blood not only in vitro but also in vivo. Recently we reported that with segmental BIA (analyzing the body considered as composed of 5 cylinders) predictive equations for various determinants of blood viscosity were closer than for the wole body. Another widely used BIA technique uses leg-to-leg impedance measurements so that two cylinders (the two legs) are analyzed.

- * Recent studies found that this curve is affected by shear rate, showing that the peak value shifts right as Hct increases; data were gathered from 11 young recreational athletes.
- * The findings indicate that as shear rate increases, both the optimal h/η and Hct values rise, with the smallest discrepancy between predicted and actual values occurring at shear rates of 2720 s-1, emphasizing the importance of measuring viscosity at high shear rates (≥500 s-1
