DOES SIZE REALLY MATTER? Continued from previous post …(results of treatment) Patient chose the option of thermal ablation by pinhole approach ( RadioFrequency Ablation) after detailed discussion of all the options A-D . Achieved 80% reduction in volume ( from 240 ml to 48 ml) 6 months post 2 sessions of RFA StarMed Healthcare Patient is very happy with the results.

NEW VJSessions 💬 🩸 In this exclusive session, leading experts Daniel Lenihan, Raúl Córdoba Mascuñano, and Iskra Pusic discuss the importance of #cardiooncology, awareness around the #ESC 2022 cardio-oncology guidelines, and the value of building a #multidisciplinary team 🔦 🫀 The experts share insights into the efforts of global societies to implement the ESC guidelines into #clinical practice, strategies to prevent #cardiactoxicities in patients being treated for #hematologicmalignancies, and the essential collaboration of #hematologists and #cardiologists Take a look 👉 https://lnkd.in/egvnPfsx #VJHemOnc

🤔 Should patients have to wait anxiously for an appointment that only serves to give good news? We know that many of our specialists use our ‘Advice & Guidance’ feature to quickly respond to GPs and patients about non-urgent referrals. One important use case is when a GP makes an incidental finding on imaging or pathology, and a referral is sent to a specialist to investigate this further. Typically, time would first be spent making the appointment and freeing up schedules to attend it. Leading up to the appointment, the patient and their carers will be understandably anxious and unnecessarily so; They would simply be told the good news that this is just an incidental finding. Consultmed’s Advice & Guidance feature allows for asynchronous, secure communication back to the referrer. In this use case, immediate advice that the finding is normal would be communicated immediately and securely to the GP, saving valuable time, as well as unnecessary anxiety. 🗞️🗞️Check the link below to read Dr Pam Rachootin’s article! https://lnkd.in/gVySxbuc

Did you catch the #news and see who won the big award last night? Sage's #multiplesclerosis Journal, shared their recent #March2024 issue's #coverstory #award went to.... None other than #ccfbme Kunio Nakamura + team of Cleveland Clinic Lerner Research Institute researchers. 🏆 🏆 👏 👏 👏 #Congrats to Dr. Nakamura & the entire team on this #groundbreaking study, "Ibudilast reduces slowly enlarging lesions in progressive multiple sclerosis" (below). Your research has significantly advanced our understanding of #ms and its treatment, demonstrating that ibudilast can decrease the volume of slowly enlarging lesions in patients by 23% over 96 weeks. It also highlights the potential of ibudilast for future #MStherapies, and the value of using slowly enlarging lesions as an #imaging #biomarker for chronic active lesions. Stay tuned for further updates this #awardsseason as Cleveland Clinic Dept. of #biomedicalengineering continues to bring #innovationinhealthcare from bench to bedside. #bme #coverstorychronicles Cleveland Clinic Innovations #inthenewsmondays

The trial demonstrated the feasibility of home OCT use with newly diagnosed, treatment naive #AMD patients. This feasibility trial has led to the initiation of a 600-patient, randomized control trial sponsored by DRCR-net to compare home OCT against treat and extend management. The trial recruited its first patient in January 2024. #digitalhealth #ophthalmology #retina #remotepatientmonitoring #amd
