Imaging-Based Preoperative Planning
2017
Liver resection in the treatment of colorectal liver metastases, as for any other primary or secondary liver tumor, needs to be oncologically effective and surgically safe. Both goals need equal consideration, and imaging-based preoperative planning is paramount for achieving each of them. Preoperative imaging should ideally identify all metastatic lesions in the liver, as well as extrahepatic disease. Furthermore, it should provide an anatomical roadmap with the exact localization of each lesion within the segmental hepatic anatomy, and its proximity to adjacent vasculo-biliary structures, to allow for proper resection leaving the patient with a sufficiently functioning liver remnant. This…
Structured Reporting in Clinical Routine.
2018
The radiology report is the key component in the communication between radiologists and referring clinicians. Traditionally, reports are written as free text. Several studies have shown that structured reporting using dedicated report templates has a number of advantages compared to conventional reports. Therefore, many radiological societies have recommended the implementation of structured reporting in clinical routine. In the meantime, collections of freely available templates have been presented and software solutions for structured reporting have been made commercially available. These allow for quality improvements in the written radiology report as they ensure that all relevant clin…
