Radiation dose differences between thoracic radiotherapy planning CT and thoracic diagnostic CT scans (2015)
Journal Article
Sanderud, A., England, A., Hogg, P., Fosså, K., Svensson, S., & Johansen, S. (2016). Radiation dose differences between thoracic radiotherapy planning CT and thoracic diagnostic CT scans. Radiography, 22(2), 107-111. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2015.08.003

Purpose: To compare the absorbed dose from computed tomography (CT) in radiotherapy planning (RP CT) against those from diagnostic CT (DG CT) examinations and to explore the possible reasons for any dose differences. Method: Two groups of patients u... Read More about Radiation dose differences between thoracic radiotherapy planning CT and thoracic diagnostic CT scans.

Multicenter retrospective investigation into migration of fenestrated aortic stent grafts (2015)
Journal Article
England, A., Garcia-Finana, M., & McWilliams, R. (2015). Multicenter retrospective investigation into migration of fenestrated aortic stent grafts. Journal of Vascular Surgery, 62(4), 884-892. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvs.2015.04.420

Objective: Fenestrated stent grafts are subject to the same hemodynamic forces that have resulted in migration of standard infrarenal stent grafts. Outcome data for fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair consist of short-term and midterm efficacy...

ChEVAS : combining suprarenal EVAS with chimney technique (2015)
Journal Article
Torella, F., Chan, T., Shaikh, U., England, A., Fisher, R., & McWilliams, R. (2015). ChEVAS : combining suprarenal EVAS with chimney technique. CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 38(5), 1294-1298. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00270-015-1189-x

Endovascular sealing with the Nellix(®) endoprosthesis (EVAS) is a new technique to treat infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. We describe the use of endovascular sealing in conjunction with chimney stents for the renal arteries (chEVAS) in two pat...
