Efficacy and safety of temporary selective portal vein embolization before major hepatectomy (EMBORES): a phase 2 trial

Background Portal vein embolization (PVE) is routinely used before major hepatectomy to induce hypertrophy of the future liver remnant (FLR) and reduce post-hepatectomy liver failure. Conventional PVE relies on permanent embolic agents, resulting in irreversible portal occlusion,...

From fluid loss to calcification: MRI and CT matrix features in cystic echinococcosis

Abstract Objective To characterize MRI matrix signal and CT calcification patterns across WHO-IWGE stages, compare them with lesion mimicking cystic echinococcosis (CE), and derive an MRI-based subclassification for inactive cysts. Materials and methods This retrospective multice...
