In the past, there was very little known about lung cancer, and the average survival rate was low. However, over the last few years, doctors have been making headway with smoking-related cancers, allowing them to diagnose it at earlier stages when they can be more successful with treatment. CT scans and X-rays are two of the most commonly used tests for the early detection of lung cancer.

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common reasons for anti-microbial use (Tan, 2016). However, the optimal treatment duration for UTI in men is not well studied, and current practice guidelines are based on historical dogma. One clinical trial demonstrates that afebrile UTI can be treated successfully with antibiotics for seven days in women, but that seven days is inferior to 14 days during short-term follow-up and non-inferior during long-term follow-up (van Nieuwkoop

If you’ve been to the doctor’s office, hospital , or any healthcare building recently, you might have noticed an upgrade in technology. Instead of a sign-in sheet, you may have been handed a fingerprint scanner. In lieu of a paper and pen, a nurse may have an iPad or desktop computer to take your medical history. For years, medical offices around the country have already had an online scheduling and note-taking system, so it may not come as a surprise that innovations have reached their way to m

Exceptionally few things can be more confusing as a resident than how much to put in a report. Each faculty member tells you something slightly different. Some want every little detailed description. And others want a dictation that is so short it may even skip over some of the relevant findings. Since the diverse dictations you read are so vast, and each attending does it differently, the variety of recommendations you receive is also all over the map.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of bone radiofrequency (RF) ablation in the spine with and without controlled saline infusion. RF ablation with and without controlled saline infusion was performed in the vertebral bodies of 2 swine with real-time temperature and impedance recordings. Histology and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging results were reviewed to evaluate the ablation zone size, breach of spinal canal, and damage to the spinal cord and nerves.

To investigate the risk factors affecting the improvement of sarcopenia after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in cirrhotic patients, this study retrospectively analyzed the data of 111 cirrhotic patients with sarcopenia who underwent TIPS creation. Computed tomography–based measurement of skeletal muscle area was used to calculate skeletal muscle index (SMI) in all patients at baseline and 6 months after TIPS creation.

The standard of care for soft tissue sarcoma is surgical resection with consolidative radiotherapy (1). If local recurrences are treated with consecutive episodes of surgery and radiotherapy, eventually, treatment options are exhausted, leading to more extensive options, such as amputation for local control. Percutaneous ablative techniques, including cryoablation (2,3), have been described.

Percutaneous endovascular biopsy is an established technique for tissue diagnosis of intravascular and perivascular lesions located in or near the large veins and arteries of the thorax and abdomen and in the heart (1–4). In most of these cases, vascular access can be obtained via the femoral or jugular veins or femoral arteries. However, obtaining tissue specimens from lesions located in the extrahepatic portomesenteric venous system may be more challenging.

Although transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is well documented and studied, transplant renal vein stenosis (TRVS) and venous outflow stenosis are relatively underreported and possibly underrecognized entities, only rarely described in single case reports (1–4). TRVS can result in graft injury and, if left untreated, irreversible graft failure. Endovascular intervention is a potential treatment option; however, there exist minimal data regarding the technique, safety, and efficacy of these p

About 40% of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime, and patients are getting younger. At the same time, the cost of treatment continues to rise, with employers spending 8.5% more on cancer care for each employee than they did last year. The best thing employers can do for their employees and business tomorrow is to invest in cancer detection and care today.
