MRI enhancement predicting fibroid volume reduction to uterine artery embolization
Objectives: Fibroid non-enhancement is considered a relative contraindication to uterine artery embolization (UAE) for symptomatic fibroids. The purpose was to assess the impact of UAE on non-enhancing fibroids and to determine imaging predictors of fibroid shrinkage. Materials and methods: Retrospective review of all women who underwent UAE for symptomatic fibroids (5/09-7/14) and had follow-u...
متن کاملReducing Radiation Dose in Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Using Image Noise Reduction Technology.
This study sought to quantitatively evaluate the reduction of radiation dose in coronary angiography and angioplasty with the use of image noise reduction technology in a routine clinical setting. Radiation dose data from consecutive 605 coronary procedures (397 consecutive coronary angiograms and 208 consecutive coronary interventions) performed from October 2014 to April 2015 on a coronary an...

متن کاملRadiation Dose Reduction Techniques in the Workplace
The principal objective of radiation protection is to ensure that the dose received by any individual does not exceed the applicable M.P.D. values.We will discuss in this paper the presents recommendations and technical information related to the design and installation of structural shielding with taking into account the concept of Maximum Permissible Dose equivalent (MPDl as expressed and ...
متن کاملAssessment of Patient Absorbed Radiation Dose during Hysterosalpingography: A Pilot Study in Southwest Nigeria
Background: Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an indispensable tool for diagnosing infertility in females. The procedure exposes female reproductive organs to ionizing radiation as the genitals are irradiated during the process. Investigating patient absorbed dose during the procedures is essential for effective radiological protection of the patient. Objective: This study aims to investigat...
