Objective: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a common and serious complication of diabetes, often leading to infection, amputation and poor quality of life. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have shown promise in treating chronic wounds, but their therapeutic efficacy is limited due to poor survival and low regenerative activity. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIUS), a non-invasive physical modality, has been shown to enhance the biological behavior of BMSCs.

Introduction: It is well known that Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a complex disease characterized by an Upper Airway (UA) collapse during sleep, with potential consequences on ENT districts. Recent evidence suggests a possible association with Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD). However, the potential effects of both surgical and non-surgical therapeutic strategies on ET function remain poorly explored in the current literature.

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and clinical utility of non-contrast magnetic resonance angiography (NC-MRA) using a modified balanced steady-state free precession (b-SSFP) technique combined with arterial spin labeling (ASL) for post-embolotherapy follow-up of renal artery aneurysms (RAAs), with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as the reference standard.

Method: A total of 57 patients with RAAs underwent embolotherapy between June 2013 and July 2024. Among them, 15 RAAs from 14 patients underwent post-embolization surveillance with the NC-MRA and DSA.
