Abstract Background Interventional radiology (IR) and interventional endoscopy (IE) have broad potential for minimally invasive therapy in veterinary patients, but the scope of original peer‐reviewed veterinary IR/IE r...

Abstract Background Systemic thrombolysis is recommended for high-risk pulmonary embolism, but is associated with a substantial bleeding risk due to thrombolysis-induced coagulopathy. However, recent advances in precisio...

Background In conflict-affected regions such as Syria, where health systems are severely disrupted, first aid training for laypersons is a critical intervention to reduce preventable mortality. This study aimed to evalua...

ObjectiveCurrent treatment strategies for acute lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) have shifted from merely preventing pulmonary embolism to actively removing thrombus and preserving valve function. However, ther...

Acute heart failure (AHF) requires immediate intervention, with diuretics central to managing volume overload. We conducted a prospective single-arm study to explore changes in diuretic and renal outcomes following initi...

Ultrasound-guided percutaneous lung needle biopsy (US-PLNB) is a pivotal diagnostic technique for subpleural pulmonary lesions, offering significant advantages such as real-time imaging, absence of ionizing radiation, an...

Abstract Background Endoluminal tracheal stenting can relieve signs associated with tracheal collapse syndrome (TCS) in dogs, but major complications can result. Objective To identify associations among tracheal dimensio...

Ultimate Frisbee, a high intensity noncontact sport, poses significant injury risks due to the dynamic demands of sprinting, cutting, and jump landings. These injuries negatively impact athletic performance and carry pot...

Background: The rising demand for interventional radiology procedures (IRPs) performed under fluoroscopic guidance increases the risk of harmful radiation effects for patients and staff. Radiation dose optimisation usin...

In the hemodialysis vascular accesses, stenosis in the anastomosis and draining veins are the most common dysfunctioning pathologies, whereas thrombosis is the most common reason of access loss. Angiographic examinatio...

Abstract Background There are no known treatments that halt or reverse chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats. In rodent models, stem cell treatment has been associated with improvement in renal function parameters, especi...

Abstract Background Cytoscopic‐guided laser ablation (CLA) is a technique that can be used to correct intramural ectopic ureters (EUs) in dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives To describe clinicopathologic, imaging, and cystosco...

Abstract Background Venous obstruction in dogs caused by large intracardiac masses can result in severe morbidity with few safe treatments. Hypothesis/Objectives Retrospective study to report results after transatrial st...

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe cardiopulmonary disorder characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling, which leads to increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy, and ultim...

ABSTRACT Background and Aim The introduction of radiation in medicine has led to significant breakthroughs in diagnostic, interventional, and therapeutic practices. However, the increasing demand for medical radiation ha...

Background: Interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP) is vital for perfecting patient safety and quality of care through effective teamwork, communication, and role clarity. Aims and Objectives: This study was d...

Background: The modern intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is a highly effective, safe, private, long-acting, coitus-independent, and rapidly reversible method of contraception with few side methods of contraception...

Introduction Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) is a common condition characterised by pain, stiffness and reduced function. While conventional physiotherapy (typically comprising joint mobilisation, stretching, stren...

Abstract Introduction The Emergency Medical Service Benefit Score (EBS) was recently developed from the former Helicopter Benefit Score (HBS) to provide a standardized tool for evaluating the benefits of prehospital inte...

PURPOSE: To develop and validate an automated computational tool for calculating a slice-specific volume computed tomography (CT) dose index (CTDIvol), a water-equivalent diameter (Dw), and size-specific dose estimates (...

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical efficacy, safety, and patient’ prognosis of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) via anterior tibial vein and popliteal vein approaches in the treatment of acute lower extremity deep ve...

Introduction: Renal vascularisation variants differ significantly between individuals due to the complex embryogenesis of the kidneys. Understanding the anatomy of the renal vascular pattern is essential for conducting v...

Background: Competency-based medical education highlights the importance of assessing practical procedural skills alongside theoretical knowledge. Direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) is a validated workplace-b...
