This paper is a multi-institutional review of image-guided renal parenchymal biopsies. Among the topics covered are indications, preprocedural considerations, biopsy technique, complications, and postprocedural management. Both native kidney and transplant kidney biopsies are considered in this review.

Radiation therapy is crucial for cancer treatment, but it often causes tissue damage. The kidney, which is sensitive to radiation, is under-researched in this context. This study aimed to develop a mouse model for radiation-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) using a small animal radiation research platform (SARRP) to mimic clinical radiation conditions.

Minimally Invasive Image-Guided Percutaneous Irreversible Electroporation of Adrenal Metastases.

Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol

November 2024

Department of Interventional Oncology, Miami Cancer Institute, Baptist Health South Florida, Miami, FL, USA.

Purpose: A single-center retrospective study was performed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive irreversible electroporation (IRE) to treat metastatic adrenal tumors.

Materials And Methods: This single-center study, approved by the Institutional Review Board, retrospectively analyzed six patients who underwent image-guided percutaneous IRE for adrenal metastases. Pre-procedural imaging included CT, MRI and/or F-FDG PET-CT scans.

Article Synopsis
  • Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disorder and a major reason for needing kidney transplants globally.
  • The progression of the disease varies greatly among individuals due to genetic and environmental factors, with specific tools like the PROPKD score and Mayo Imaging Classification (MIC) used to assess risk of kidney failure.
  • A study showed that these two assessment methods do not align well in categorizing risk levels, suggesting that while MIC is useful for risk assessment, it should be combined with additional genetic and phenotypic details for improved accuracy.

Background Advances in imaging technology and the increased use of abdominal imaging have led to a rise in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) detection. While surgery remains the primary treatment for small RCCs, minimally invasive procedures like cryoablation are gaining popularity, particularly for patients with comorbidities or renal dysfunction. CT-guided cryoablation offers advantages, including high spatial resolution and real-time visualization during the procedure.
