Prospective randomized study of doxorubicin-eluting-bead embolization in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma: results of the PRECISION V study
Johannes Lammer,K. Malagari,Thomas J. Vogl,Frank Pilleul,Alban Denys,A. Watkinson,Michael B. Pitton,Géraldine Sergent,Thomas Pfammatter,Sylvain Terraz,Yves Benhamou,Yves Avajon,Thomas Gruenberger,Maria Pomoni,Herbert Langenberger,Marcus Schuchmann,Jérôme Dumortier,Christian A. Mueller,Patrick Chevallier,Riccardo Lencioni +19 more
TL;DR: TACE with DC Bead and doxorubicin is safe and effective in the treatment of HCC and offers a benefit to patients with more advanced disease.
Raw data-based iterative reconstruction in body CTA: evaluation of radiation dose saving potential.
Anna Winklehner,Christoph A. Karlo,Gilbert Puippe,Bernhard Schmidt,Thomas Flohr,Robert Goetti,Thomas Pfammatter,Thomas Frauenfelder,Hatem Alkadhi +8 more
TL;DR: Intra-individual comparisons of image quality of body CTA suggest that raw data-based iterative reconstruction allows for dose reduction >50% while maintaining image quality, and at a similar radiation dose a dose reduction of >50%, while image quality can be maintained.

Endoleaks after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair: detection with dual-energy dual-source CT.
Paul Stolzmann,Thomas Frauenfelder,Thomas Pfammatter,Nicole Peter,Hans Scheffel,Mario Lachat,Bernhard Schmidt,Borut Marincek,Hatem Alkadhi,Thomas Schertler +9 more
TL;DR: Compared with standard protocols, one dual-energy dual-source CT scan performed during the delayed phase with reconstruction of virtual nonenhanced images enables detection of endoleaks after endovascular AAA repair with high accuracy and a considerably lower radiation dose.

Acute traumatic aortic rupture: early stent-graft repair.
Mario Lachat,Thomas Pfammatter,H.J. Witzke,E. Bernard,U. Wolfensberger,Andreas Künzli,M. I. Turina +6 more
TL;DR: Non-delayed or early stent-grafting in acute traumatic rupture of the descending aorta is feasible and seems to be a valuable option, in particular when associated lesions may interfere with the surgical outcome.
