Chronic mesenteric ischaemia: role of interventional radiology in enhancing clinical outcomes

Chronic mesenteric ischaemia (CMI) is a progressive vascular condition where insufficient blood flow to the gastrointestinal tract leads to postprandial pain, sitophobia and weight loss. Unlike acute mesenteric ischaemia, CMI develops gradually and is often underdiagnosed due to vague symptoms and the protective role of collateral circulation. Although mesenteric arterial stenosis is common, symptomatic CMI […]

Optimising vessel preparation and treatment strategies in peripheral arterial disease

A comprehensive review that explores modern approaches to managing peripheral arterial disease (PAD) through endovascular techniques. PAD is a prevalent but underdiagnosed condition affecting the lower extremities, often leading to significant morbidity. Endovascular therapy has become the preferred revascularisation strategy due to its lower risk profile compared to surgical options. However, complex lesions, such as […]

Contrast-enhanced mammography in screening and symptomatic work

Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is an advanced breast imaging technique that enhances traditional mammography with iodine-based contrast, offering both structural and functional insights. It significantly improves cancer detection, especially in women with dense breast tissue, where conventional mammography often falls short. CEM demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity, rivalling breast MRI in many diagnostic scenarios, including pre-operative […]
