Towards a European prospective data registry for particle therapy
Radiother Oncol. 2024 Apr 21:110293. doi: 10.1016/j.radonc.2024.110293. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe evidence for the value of particle therapy (PT) is still sparse. While randomized trials remain a cornerstone for robust comparisons with photon-based radiotherapy, data registries collecting real-world data can play a crucial role in building evidence for new developments. This Perspective describes how the European Particle Therapy Network (EPTN) is actively working on establishing a prospective data registry encompassing all patients undergoing PT in European centers. Several obstacles and hurdles are discussed, for...

Continuous Shear Wave Elastography for Liver Using Frame-to-Frame Equalization of Complex Amplitude
This study addresses a crucial necessity in the field of noninvasive liver fibrosis diagnosis by introducing the concept of continuous shear wave elastography (C-SWE), utilizing an external vibration source and color Doppler imaging. However, an application of C-SWE to assess liver elasticity, a deep region within the human body, arises an issue of signal instability in the obtained data. To tackle this challenge, this work proposes a method involving the acquisition of multiple frames of datasets, which are subsequently compressed. Furthermore, the proposed frame-to-frame equalization method compensates discrepancies in t...

Revascularization of the Superior Mesenteric Artery by Retrograde Crossing via the Marginal Artery of Drummond
A 74-year-old woman presented with chronic mesenteric ischemia from severe superior mesenteric artery (SMA) stenosis and a chronically occluded celiac axis, as shown on computed tomography (CT) angiography (Fig 1a). She underwent 2 unsuccessful attempts of recanalization through the right common femoral and left brachial artery approaches. (Source: Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology : JVIR)

Pancreatitis after Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Intervention
A 50-year-old man who had undergone distal gastrectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy for gastric adenocarcinoma presented with new hyperbilirubinemia and biliary ductal dilation (Fig 1a, black arrow) secondary to a common bile duct (CBD) mass (Fig 1a, white arrow). Owing to his gastrojejunostomy (Fig 1a, open arrow), he was not a candidate for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. A percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram confirmed abrupt truncation of the CBD (Fig 1b, white arrow), and a brush biopsy (Cellebrity Cytology Brush; Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Massachsetts) was performed (Fig 1b, black arrow) bef...
