Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan01:13

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray01:20

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care01:27

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...
Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care01:26

Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Varicose veins, or varicosities, develop when the valves in the veins, which control blood flow, weaken or damage. It causes blood to pool and the veins to enlarge. Understanding the clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and management options for varicose veins is crucial for effective treatment and relief.Clinical manifestationsClinical manifestations of varicose veins include a heavy, achy feeling or pain after prolonged standing or sitting. This discomfort can often be relieved by...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular medicine
  • Radiation oncology
  • Biomedical engineering

Background:

  • Intravascular irradiation with gamma and beta sources inhibits neointimal proliferation post-balloon injury in porcine coronary models.
  • Clinical trials are evaluating gamma-source brachytherapy for stented vessels.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the physical interactions between radiation (gamma, beta) and metallic stent materials.
  • To summarize experimental data on radiation effects relevant to clinical brachytherapy in stented arteries.

Main Methods:

  • Review of physical principles governing radiation-stent interactions.
  • Compilation and analysis of experimental findings on radiation dose alterations in the presence of stents.

Main Results:

  • Radiation interacts with metallic stents, potentially altering dose distribution.
  • Understanding these interactions is crucial for effective vascular brachytherapy.

Conclusions:

  • Knowledge of radiation-stent interactions is essential for optimizing vascular brachytherapy.
  • Techniques to compensate for dose alterations may be necessary for successful clinical application.
