Audiovisual Breathing Guidance for Improved Image Quality and Scan Efficiency of T2- and Diffusion-Weighted Liver MRI.
Invest Radiol

From the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Hospital Bonn, Bonn, Germany (N.M., A.I., A.L., L.B., T.D., D. Kravchenko, D. Kuetting, C.C.P., J.A.L.); Quantitative Imaging Lab Bonn (QILaB), Bonn, Germany (N.M., A.I., L.B., D. Kravchenko, D.

Objectives: Impaired image quality and long scan times frequently occur in respiratory-triggered sequences in liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We evaluated the impact of an in-bore active breathing guidance (BG) application on image quality and scan time of respiratory-triggered T2-weighted (T2) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) by comparing sequences with standard triggering (T2S and DWIS) and with BG (T2BG and DWIBG).
Materials And Methods: In this prospective study, random patients with clinical indications for liver MRI underwent 3 T MRI with standard and BG acquisitions.
Introduction: Prior studies have demonstrated racial disparities in access to liver transplantation but determinants of these disparities remain poorly understood. We used geographic catchment areas for transplant centers (transplant referral regions, TRRs) to characterize transplant environment contributors to racial and ethnic disparities in liver transplant access.
Methods: Data were obtained from the Scientific Registry for Transplant Recipients (SRTR) and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) from 2015 to 2021.
Impact of distance from liver transplant centre on outcomes following liver transplantation: an Australian single-centre study.

Background: Access to liver transplantation (LT) is affected by geographic disparities. Higher waitlist mortality is observed in patients residing farther from LT centres, but the impact of distance on post-LT outcomes is unclear.
Aims: To evaluate whether the distance LT recipients reside from their LT centre affects graft and patient outcomes.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare and potentially fatal hyperinflammatory syndrome characterized by dysregulated immune activation and systemic inflammation. Secondary HLH is often triggered by infections, with being an infrequently reported cause. Peripheral axonal neuropathy is a rare and poorly understood complication of HLH.

Purpose Hepatic abscesses remain a significant clinical challenge due to high morbidity and mortality. This research aims to examine the etiological spectrum, management approaches, clinical features, and results in hepatic abscesses in a tertiary care facility in northern India, emphasizing the distinctions among pyogenic liver abscesses (PLAs) and amoebic liver abscesses (ALAs). Methods This retrospective study was done at GSVM Medical College, Kanpur, analyzing 725 patients with hepatic abscesses over a 10-year period.
