Mesenteric venous thrombosis: diagnosis and noninvasive imaging.
Michelle S. Bradbury,Peter V. Kavanagh,Robert E. Bechtold,Michael Y. M. Chen,David J. Ott,John D. Regan,Therese M. Weber +6 more
TL;DR: Angiography is reserved for equivocal cases at noninvasive imaging and is also used in conjunction with transcatheter therapeutic techniques in management of symptomatic portal and mesenteric venous thrombosis.

Complications of ureteral stent placement.
Raymond B. Dyer,Michael Y. M. Chen,Ronald J. Zagoria,John D. Regan,Charles G. Hood,Peter V. Kavanagh +5 more
TL;DR: The recent increase in usage of ureteral stents in the management of a variety of urinary tract disease processes mandates familiarity with these devices, their consequences, and their potential complications, which at times can be devastating.
204
Radio frequency ablation of lung metastases from renal cell carcinoma
TL;DR: A case of lung metastases from renal cell carcinoma treated successfully with radio frequency ablation is reported, with no evidence of recurrence or new metastases, and no additional treatment since tumor ablation.

Noninvasive Assessment of Portomesenteric Venous Thrombosis: Current Concepts and Imaging Strategies
Michelle S. Bradbury,Peter V. Kavanagh,Michael Y. M. Chen,Therese M. Weber,Robert E. Bechtold +4 more
TL;DR: These cross-sectional imaging techniques are becoming a preferred noninvasive alternative to conventional selective mesenteric angiography with delayed imaging for venous evaluation and should be considered the primary diagnostic modalities for evaluating patients with high clinical suspicion of nonsurgical mesEnteric ischemia.

Reduced Radiation Dose Helical Chest CT: Effect on Reader Evaluation of Structures and Lung Findings
John R. Mayo,Kun Il Kim,Sharyn MacDonald,Takeshi Johkoh,Peter V. Kavanagh,Harvey O. Coxson,Sverre Vedal +6 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that reduced tube current does affect reader evaluation of structures and lung findings and reduces a reader's subjective assessment of image quality.
