Six-Year Evaluation of Same-Day Discharge following Conventional Transarterial Chemoembolization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Purpose: To evaluate whether same-day discharge increased the incidence of 30-day readmission (30dR) after conventional transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at a single institution.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, 253 patients with HCC underwent 521 transarterial chemoembolization procedures between 2013 and 2020. TACE was performed with 50-mg doxorubicin/10-mg mitomycin C/5-10-mL ethiodized oil/particles.

Adapting to the Era of Virtual Recruitment: Radiology Departmental Website Response to COVID-19 and Portrayal of the Resident Experience.

Rationale And Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed radiology recruitment into a virtual affair and placed an even stronger emphasis on the importance of departmental websites. In this study, we evaluate residency websites in detailing the response to COVID-19 as well as initiatives which help describe the resident experience.

Materials And Methods: Program websites for diagnostic radiology residencies listed in the 2022 Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) program list were evaluated for 31 criteria related to departmental response to COVID-19, online outreach, and resident wellness.

Long-term outcomes following 90Y Radioembolization of neuroendocrine liver metastases: evaluation of the radiation-emitting SIR-spheres in non-resectable liver tumor (RESiN) registry.

Background: The goal of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of 90Y radioembolization for neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM) in a multicenter registry.

Methods: One hundred-seventy patients with NELM were enrolled in the registry (NCT02685631). Prior treatments included hepatic resection (n = 23, 14%), arterial therapy (n = 62, 36%), octreotide (n = 119, 83%), cytotoxic chemotherapy (n = 58, 41%), biologic therapy (n = 49, 33%) and immunotherapy (n = 10, 6%).

Resident Wellness in Radiology as Portrayed by Departmental Websites.

Rationale And Objectives: Departmental websites are often the first exposure applicants have in researching programs. Websites provide information about resident education as well as infrastructure for resident wellness. For this study, we reviewed residency websites to evaluate resident wellness initiatives and extent of details available online.

Upsloping lateral sourcil: a radiographic finding of hip instability.

While radiographic findings of frank hip dysplasia are well defined, there is a lack of diagnostic criteria for patients with radiographically 'normal' hips who have borderline morphologic deficits and clinical instability. In this study, we aim to define and validate a new radiographic finding associated with hip instability known as the upsloping lateral sourcil (ULS). Patients (316) were reviewed for lateral center edge angles, generalized joint laxity assessed with the Beighton Hypermobility Score and the presence of the ULS.

Double Fellowships in Radiology: A Survey of 2014 Graduating Fellows.

Purpose: Radiology fellowship training has evolved from being an uncommon option to being a near requisite for post-training employment in the United States. A subset of fellows elect to pursue second fellowships with potentially substantial implications on both the private sector and academic radiology workforce. The purpose of this study was to assess the proportion of current radiology fellows pursuing multiple years of post-residency fellowship training.
