Based on our clinical cases repaired with flaps, we consider this flap to be useful as a free flap for the repair of defects of the extremities and as an island flap for reconstruction of defects on the anteromedial aspect of the lower leg. The territory of the flap is relatively wide, ...
High spatial and temporal resolution imaging of the arterial vasculature of the lower extremity with contrast enhanced mr angiography Vascular imaging can be essential in the diagnosis, monitoring, and planning and assessment of treatment of patients with peripheral vascular disease. The ... PM Mostar...
While MRI is an imaging method of first choice in almost all parts of the human body its acceptance for thoracic imaging is rather low even today. One of the reasons is of course that CT has developed dramatically. Multidetector spiral technique (MDCT) allows for isotropic voxels and reconstruc...
The catheter is configured to snare a guidewire within the sheath and remove the guidewire from the vessel upon removal of the catheter from the vessel. Also provided is a catheter comprising a catheter body, a capture element and a guidewire lumen in communication with the capture element....
DEVICES AND METHODS FOR TREATING LOWER EXTREMITY VASCULATUREA catheter system can include a tubular body, and at least one of a targeting system coupled to the tubular body, an expandable member, or a fluid injection port. A method of identifying a bifurcation can include inserting a catheter ...
