AEPC Geneva, 2022. I liked this one the most out of the cohort we have published and/ or presented. We had used 2 overlapping drug-eluting Medtronic coronary stents in- series to navigate for the length and a bit of curvy morphology in this case. 2 years longitudinally ( time lost during the pandemic); very little neo-intima proliferation. Cavo-Pulmonary ( Glenn) shunt (+ take-down of the stent) was performed in 2021. This gorgeous lad is now waiting for Fontan completion. Neat Functionally Single Ventricle (Tricuspid atresia- Pulmonary atresia) anatomy. Have we gotten to the custom-designed stent for PDAs yet? This was the core message of this content then. Or is it the usual CHD 'narrow market' argument again?

#PMC403 Patients with spinal vascular lesions present with unique symptoms and have important anatomical and physiologic changes that must be considered prior to treatment. In this mini-review, we provide an overview of normal spinal vascular anatomy and discuss several key spinal vascular lesions. We provide an overview of cavernous malformations, intradural arteriovenous malformations, perimedullary arteriovenous fistulas, and dural arteriovenous fistulas. Important considerations are addressed in terms of pathologic characterization, specific imaging findings, and treatment approaches.

Bone scan - still the cornerstone of most nuclear medicine departments in Belgium - undergoes silent revolution - new high resolution accurate diagnostic tools provides more specific information in diagnostics.

In eyes affected by primary open angle glaucoma, alteration in retinal vessel structure was measured even at early stages. In this new study, the team at Medical University of Warsaw used a rtx1 camera to capture the walls of retinal arterioles and extract micron-precision measurements. https://lnkd.in/eEk4HiKx #ophthalmology #retina #glaucoma #clinicalresearch #adaptiveoptics #retinalimaging

Ophthopedia Update:Peripapillary and Macular Vessel Density in Unilateral Early Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma: Précis: In early pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, radial peripapillary capillary vessel density (RPC-VD) was reduced nasally, while the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thinned from the nasal to temporal sectors. Nonglaucomatous fellow eyes demonstrated no RPC-VD or RNFL loss in comparison to the controls. Purpose: To evaluate peripapillary and macular vessel density (VD) in unilateral early pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) and unaffected fellow eyes compared to healthy controls. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 28 eyes with PXG and 28 nonglaucomatous, pseudoexfoliation-free fellow eyes of 28 patients and 28 eyes of 28 healthy participants. All subjects underwent optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging. Radial peripapillary capillary VD (RPC-VD), macular VD, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, and ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness were compared among the groups. Results: The average RPC-VD and RNFL thickness were significantly reduced in PXG eyes compared to both fellow eyes and the control group (P #Glaucoma #Ophthalmology #Ophthotwitter
