AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. Arteriovenous Fistulas and Their Characteristic Sites of Stenosis

Keith Bertram Quencer and Melih Arici

OBJECTIVE. In the United States, more than 250,000 patients with end-stage renal disease are dialyzed through arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). The three most common AVFs are the radiocephalic fistula, the brachiocephalic fistula, and the brachial artery–to–transposed basilic vein fistula. Although many potential access site stenoses can and do occur within any given fistula, each fistula has a characteristic site of stenosis. This article will discuss the characteristic site of stenosis for each type of fistula including the effects of stenosis at that site on fistula function, and their treatment.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. An Overview of Splenic Embolization

Chaitanya Ahuja, Khashayar Farsad and Meghna Chadha

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to define the role of splenic embolization in trauma patients and in patients presenting for treatment of thrombocytopenia and portal hypertension. This article reviews the indications, technical considerations, outcomes, and complications of splenic artery embolization.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. Transarterial Chemoembolization and 90Y Radioembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Review of Current Applications Beyond Intermediate-Stage Disease

Nicholas Fidelman and Robert K. Kerlan Jr.

OBJECTIVE. The practice guideline of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases currently recommends transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for the treatment of intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The use of transarterial radioembolization (TARE) using 90Y microspheres is not formally recommended. This article discusses the current clinical applications of TACE and TARE and compares the clinical utility of these techniques for various subpopulations of patients with HCC.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. Development of Conventional Transarterial Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinomas in Japan: Historical, Strategic, and Technical Review

Masahiro Horikawa, Shiro Miyayama, Toshiyuki Irie, Tatsumi Kaji and Yasuaki Arai

OBJECTIVE. This article reviews the development of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in Japan, particularly ethiodized oil–based conventional TACE, from historical, strategic, and technical points of view. We also present the current status of standardized conventional TACE.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. Diagnostic Yield of CT-Guided Percutaneous Transthoracic Needle Biopsy for Diagnosis of Anterior Mediastinal Masses

Milena Petranovic, Matthew D. Gilman, Ashok Muniappan, Robert P. Hasserjian, Subba R. Digumarthy, Victorine V. Muse, Amita Sharma, Jo-Anne O. Shepard and Carol C. Wu

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic yield and accuracy of CT-guided percutaneous biopsy of anterior mediastinal masses and assess prebiopsy characteristics that may help to select patients with the highest diagnostic yield.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY. Preoperative Evaluation of Malignant Perihilar Biliary Obstruction: Negative-Contrast CT Cholangiopancreatography and CT Angiography Versus MRCP and MR Angiography

Xiao-Ping Wu, Jian-Ming Ni, Zhui-Yang Zhang, Feng-Qi Lu, Bin Li, Hui-Han Jin and Tu Dai

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to compare negative-contrast CT cholangiopancreatography (CTCP) and CT angiography (CTA) with MRCP and MR angiography (MRA) for the preoperative evaluation of malignant perihilar biliary obstruction.

Basak Erguvan Dogan, Mark J. Dryden, Wei Wei, Bruno D. Fornage, Thomas A. Buchholz, Benjamin Smith, Kelly Hunt, Savitri Krishnamurthy and Wei Tse Yang

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence of occult nodal metastases on routine ultrasound examination of internal mammary (IM) nodal basins in patients with breast cancer.

CARDIOVASCULAR AND INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY. Patient Compliance with Surveillance Following Elective Endovascular Aneurysm Repair

Anthony D. Godfrey, Abigail H. M. Morbi, Ian M. Nordon

Purpose: Integral to maintaining good outcomes post-endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a robust surveillance protocol. A significant proportion of patients fail to comply with surveillance, exposing themselves to complications. We examine EVAR surveillance in Wessex (UK), exploring factors that may predict poor compliance.
