Radiation Exposure of Patients and Interventional Radiologists during Prostatic Artery Embolization: A Prospective Single-Operator Study.
To prospectively analyze the radiation exposure of patients and interventional radiologists during prostatic artery embolization (PAE). ⋯ PAE may lead to high x-ray exposures to patients and interventional radiologists.

Multicenter Study Clinical TrialKorean Multicenter Registry of Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization with Drug-Eluting Embolic Agents for Nodular Hepatocellular Carcinomas: Six-Month Outcome Analysis.
To assess the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting embolic (DEE) agents for nodular hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). ⋯ DEE chemoembolization for nodular HCC had an acceptable safety profile and acceptable 6-month tumor response and survival rates.

The Value of 320-Row Multidetector CT Bronchial Arteriography in Recurrent Hemoptysis after Failed Transcatheter Arterial Embolization.
To retrospectively assess the value of computed tomographic (CT) bronchial arteriography (BA) with 320-row multidetector CT in the management of patients with recurrent hemoptysis immediately after bronchial artery embolization (BAE). ⋯ Multiple unrecognized abnormal ectopic bronchial arteries and NBSAs are the major causes of failure of initial BAE. Multidetector CT BA can precisely identify a large number of feeding vessels that are missed on conventional BA, allowing for repeat embolization with a high success rate.
