January 2016 and 31. December 2016. Adherence to PAD monitoring was associated with shorter hospital LoS (e.g. pain monitoring 13 vs. 10 days; p<0.001), ICU LoS, duration of mechanical ventilation shown by univariate analysis. Despite the improved clinical outcome, adherence to PAD elements was associated with a decreased case mix per day and…[Read more]

Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT)-derived quantification of iodine concentration (IC) is increasingly used in oncologic imaging to characterize lesions and evaluate treatment response. However, only limited data are available on intraindividual consistency of IC and its variation. This study investigates the longitudinal reproducibility of IC…[Read more]
