Hepatic arterial infusion therapy involves surgically implanting a subcutaneous hepatic arterial infusion pump with the catheter tip at the hepatic artery. This pump directly delivers chemotherapy to the liver, which may reduce systemic toxicity, improve resectability, and treat unresectable hepatic lesions. This therapy is used in primary or metastatic hepatic malignancies.

Introduction: The prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases has significantly increased, necessitating a deeper understanding of their symptoms, diagnostic processes, and prevention strategies. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are two prominent neurodegenerative conditions that present diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms. To address these challenges, experts utilize a range of imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), functional MRI (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).

Purpose Of Review: Hot phases are a challenging clinical presentation in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), marked by acute chest pain and elevated cardiac troponins in the absence of obstructive coronary disease. These episodes manifest as myocarditis and primarily affect young patients, contributing to a heightened risk of life-threatening arrhythmias and potential disease progression. This review aims to synthesize recent research on the pathophysiology, diagnostic challenges, and therapeutic management of hot phases in ACM.

Early identification and accurate assessment of MCI are critical for clinical trial enrichment as well as the early intervention of AD. Digital makers offered a unique opportunity for ecologically valid and affordable early detection approaches.

Purpose Of Review: Cardiac tumours present significant clinical challenges due to their wide differential, complex anatomical and physiological implications, as well as the potential for widespread invasion in the case of malignancies. This review synthesizes recent findings surrounding the diagnosis and management of specifically right-sided cardiac tumours, with a particular focus on surgical resection and reconstructive techniques.
Recent Findings: Management of cardiac tumours can be categorized into three key phases.
