A comparative review of characteristics of digital detectors for fluorography and roentgenography. Modern digital detection systems on the basis of X-ray image intensifiers (XRII) were demonstrated to be superior in terms of both X-ray image parameters and radiation safety of patient. Specifications of a new detection system for fluorography and roentgenography available from SpektrAP Ltd. (Russia) were described.

(1) Background: An online survey-based observational cross-sectional study aimed at elucidating the experience and attitudes of an unstructured population regarding diagnostic imaging. (2) Methods: Invitations to participate were distributed using mixed-mode design to deidentified residents aged 18 years and older. Main outcome measures included morbidity structure and incidence of diagnostic imaging administrations.

Objective: Breast cancer most commonly occurs in the upper outer quadrant (UOQ) chest wall (CW). The effectiveness of routine leaded aprons to protect this region of the body in interventionalists during fluoroscopically guided interventions (FGIs) is unknown. Given the high lifetime attributable risks of prolonged occupational exposure to ionizing radiation and the increasing number of practicing female vascular surgeons and interventionalists, we sought to determine if the use of a leaded arm shield would offer additional protection to the lateral CW and axilla in operators compared with routine leaded aprons.

Case 1: A 73-year-old male, who had an intraductal papillary mucinous adenocarcinoma or resectable pancreatic cancer at the uncinate process of the pancreas five years after subtotal esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, underwent pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy(PPPD). Case 2: A 68-year-old male, who also had a resectable pancreatic cancer at the uncinate process of the pancreas 3 years after subtotal esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, underwent PPPD following neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In both cases, right gastroepiploic artery and vein were preserved to maintain the perfusion of the gastric tube during surgery.

In Belarus and several EECA countries, periodic population-based chest X-ray "fluorography programme" use as a mass screening tool for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) has been used for decades. This mass screening has also often been justified for the early detection of lung cancer (LC), although no mortality benefits were demonstrated by screening with chest X-ray in international randomized trials. In Belarus, fluorography testing is mandatory every one to three years for all adults depending on age and the so-called "risk groups".

Purpose: Radiation exposure for vascular interventionalists is still a concern. The aim of this study was to assess the value of advanced imaging guidance on radiation exposure and iodinated contrast volume during endovascular treatment of lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD).
Materials And Methods: It was a prospective, randomized, monocentric, pilot, single-operator study, conducted from June 2018 to October 2019.
