conclusions: this study provides detailed information and case samples of radiodine contamination artifacts and non-physiological, non-metastatic extra-thyroidal i-131 accumulation in whole-body i-131 imaging. introduction: radioactive iodine has been used for more than 50 years for the treatment of thyroid diseases. differentiated thyroid cancers have the ability to trap iodine. therefore, rad...

transradial coronary angiography has been known as an alternative to the transfemoral approach with fewer serious complications. radial artery pseudoaneurysms present as a rare complication of transradial catheterization. although some methods have been applied for the obliteration of pseudoaneurysms, the use of radial bands such as the tr band ® (terumo medical corporation, somerset, nj) is a ...

pseudoaneurysms (psa) of deep femoral artery (dfa) have been reported following penetrating and blunt trauma to the thigh and orthopedic procedures of the proximal femur. we describe a case of pseudoaneurysm of dfa as a late complication of limb trauma which was confirmed by exploration in an urgent surgery. after two operations successful surgical repair was performed.
