Perforation as a Cause of Failure in the Conservative Treatment of Acute Cholecystitis: Is Percutaneous Cholecystostomy A Sufficient Treatment?

After 3.65 (2-8) days of conservative treatment, the patients with no improvement in clinical and/or laboratory findings were considered to have complicated cholecystitis and underwent additional imaging procedures. In 20 patients, gallbladder perforation was observed, and a total of 22 catheters were placed

Volumetric-Based Analysis of In-Vivo and Ex-Vivo Quantita-tive MR Diffusion Parameters in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Correlation with Pathologic Findings

Imaging biomarkers are needed to assess modifications in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) induced by stroma-targeted therapies. The study investigates correlations between quantitative diffusion parameters obtained in vivo and ex vivo with a tumour volumetric approach and quantitative pathologic findings including fibrosis, vascular and total nuclear densities in PA
