Background: Periocular static wrinkles, which are common cosmetic concerns, lack an established effective treatment. Microneedling radio frequency (MNRF) has shown promise in skin rejuvenation; however, there is limited objective information on its long-term effectiveness with regard to periocular static wrinkles.
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of MNRF treatment for periocular static wrinkles.

Purpose: Percutaneous lesioning-techniques for treating refractory Trigeminal Neuralgias not amenable to Micro-Vascular Decompression remain useful in neurosurgical practice. Success, avoidance of complications and reduction of side-effects depend on the accurate location of the lesion-maker especially for Radio-Frequency-Thermo-Rhizotomy (RF-Th-Rh). Added to X-ray-guidance, Intra-Operative Neurophysiology can be of significant help to achieve optimal accuracy of the surgery.

Lipid-lowering therapy plays a central role in reducing cardiovascular events. Over the past few decades, clinical trials utilizing several imaging techniques have consistently shown that lipid-lowering therapy can reduce the coronary plaque burden and improve plaque composition. Although intravascular ultrasound has been the most extensively used modality to assess plaque burden, other invasive modalities, such as optical coherence tomography and near-infrared spectroscopy, provide relevant data on plaque vulnerability, and computed tomography angiography detects both plaque volume and characteristics non-invasively.

Introduction: Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic, distressing, inflammatory process that has a huge impact on quality of life in women. Uncontrolled vulvar LS can lead to chronic symptoms of itching and pain and can lead to anatomic changes, scarring, and elevated risk of cancer. First-line therapy with corticosteroids is often not successful in controlling symptoms, especially over the long term.

Background: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous thermal ablation has become an alternative treatment for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recent evidence suggests that fusion imaging (FI) may improve the feasibility and efficacy of thermal ablation for HCC, while the clinical evidence remains limited.
Purpose: To compare FI versus ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for HCC.
