Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Clinical Ultrasound"
DOI: 10.1002/jcu.23334
Abstract: We compared transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for detecting myometrial infiltration, cervical involvement, and for measuring tumor volume in endometrial cancer patients. We also correlated tumor volume to worse histological prognostic factors. read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00268-022-06537-6
Abstract: Intraoperative PTH (ioPTH) monitoring has become widely accepted in the era of minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the need for ioPTH during parathyroidectomy in patients with positive preoperative… read more here.

The complexity of cryptoglandular fistula-in-ano can be predicted by the distance of the external opening to the anal verge; implications for preoperative imaging?

DOI: 10.1007/s10151-020-02353-z
Abstract: Background Many surgeons believe that the distance from the external opening to the anal verge (DEOAV) predicts the complexity of a cryptoglandular fistulas-in-ano and, therefore, predicts the need for additional imaging. However, there is no… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10439-021-02896-8
Abstract: Retractors and scopes used in head and neck surgery to provide adequate surgical exposure also deform critical structures in the region. Surgeons typically use preoperative imaging to plan and guide their tumor resections, however the… read more here.
