An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis in end-stage renal disease. However, 60% of AVFs fail to achieve sufficient lumen dilation to allow adequate blood flow for chronic dialysis [1]. Although hemodynamics is likely an important modulator of AVF maturation and remodeling, the AVF hemodynamic spatial distribution profiles and their relationship with AVF maturation and remodeling are unclear [2]. Based on data collected from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of an AVF and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, we developed a protocol for longitudinal (over time) and noninvasive monitoring of geometry and hemodynamics of human AVF.

AbstractWhen it comes to examining the brachial plexus, ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are complementary investigations. US is well placed for screening most extraforaminal pathologies, whereas MRI is more sensitive and accurate for specific clinical indications. For example, MRI is probably the preferred technique for assessment of trauma because it enables a thorough evaluation of both the intraspinal and extraspinal elements, although US can depict extraforaminal neural injury with a high level of accuracy. Conversely, US is probably the preferred technique for examination of neurologic amyotrophy because a more extensive involvement beyond the brachial plexus is the norm, although MRI is more sensitive than US for evaluating muscle denervation associated with this entity. With this synergy in mind, this review highlights the tips for examining the brachial plexus with US and MRI.
