Intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (IADSA) has been used with advantage for control of the results of bronchial artery infusion of drugs for primarily unresectable bronchogenic carcinoma. The IADSA has been performed as road mapping prior to therapy. Drug treatment has been performed with four different regimes, depending on tumour type. Debulking and in some cases complete healing are the results, which are superior to other reported treatments.

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a cerebrovascular condition marked by the diffuse, reversible narrowing of multiple segments of cerebral arteries. This syndrome predominantly affects women and most commonly presents around the age of 42. It can develop spontaneously or be induced by factors such as the postpartum period or exposure to vasoactive substances.

To report the preliminary result of empiric embolization for angiographycally-negative lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) by using the pharmaco-induced vasospasm technique with or without the adjunctive use of intra-arterial multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT). 23 LGIB patients with positive MDCT findings but negative angiographic results underwent empiric pharmaco-induced vasospasm therapy. The presumed bleeding artery was semi-selectively catheterized, and a segment of bowel was temporarily spasmed with bolus injection of epinephrine and immediately followed by 4-h' vasopressin infusion.

From the Department of Radiology, University of California Davis, Sacramento, CA.
Accidental intra-arterial injections of radiotracers are rare events resulting in a specific imaging pattern, described as "hot-forearm," "hot-hand," "glove-phenomenon," or "glove-like pattern." We present a case 68 Ga-DOTATATE total-body PET/CT for restaging of a neuroendocrine tumor, where intra-arterial misinjection resulted in a glove phenomenon. Since patients may present with minimal symptoms, like in this case, and PET findings may only be seen at the distal upper extremity (placed above the head), these accidental injections may be more frequently detected with total-body PET/CT due to the longer field-of-view.

Department of Cardiology and Vascular Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia - National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita, Jakarta, Indonesia..
Although acute upper limb ischemia (AULI) is less prevalent than lower acute limb ischemia, AULI may lead to severe morbidity if not well-treated. To manage AULI appropriately, evaluation of the etiologies, risk factors, and revascularization is of importance. Here we present a case of recurrent AULI and its appropriate diagnostic and management approaches.
