Imaging dose in image-guided radiotherapy for localized prostate intensity-modulated radiotherapy: a nationwide survey in Japan
Uro Imaging 1 min.
This study aimed to establish the diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) of imaging doses for image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) used in intensity-modulated radiotherapy for prostate cancer in Japan. A nationwide survey was conducted to gather data on image acquisition conditions, parameters, and frequencies...
Impact of renal vein doppler ultrasound-guided CVP titration in sepsis: a pilot randomized controlled trial
Uro Imaging 6 min.
The concept of sepsis was first formally introduced in 1991 [1]. According to the Sepsis-3 consensus (2016), sepsis is currently defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection [2]. Without prompt and effective treatment, the condition can rapidly lead...
Exploration of prognostic prediction models for renal cell carcinoma using diffusion relaxation correlation spectroscopic imaging
Uro Imaging 6 min.
The incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has increased by approximately 1.4% annually over the past decade [1, 2]. The prognosis of RCC varies and is related to several factors [3, 4]. Accurate risk stratification is crucial for optimizing clinical management. Therefore, highly efficient predictive...
Impact of different hemodynamic states of patent ductus arteriosus on cerebral, mesenteric, and renal perfusion in preterm infants: a doppler ultrasound analysis
Uro Imaging 4 min.
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a common congenital cardiac anomaly in preterm infants, with an incidence exceeding 30% in those born before 32 weeks of gestation [1]. Persistent PDA allows blood to shunt from the aorta to the pulmonary circulation, leading to pulmonary overperfusion and systemic hypoperfusion,...
Two-step postoperative ultrasound for early detection of ureteral obstruction after benign hysterectomy
Uro Imaging 6 min.
Hysterectomy is one of the most commonly performed major operations in gynecologic surgery, with reported overall complication rates ranging from 3% to 6% [1]. Among these complications, such as hemorrhage, infection, and bladder injury, ureteral injury and obstruction represent some of the most serious...
