Angiographic CT: in vitro comparison of different carotid artery stents-does stent orientation matter?
ACT evaluation of vessel patency after stent placement is possible but is impaired by ALN. Stent orientation of the stents to the angiography system did not significantly influence ALN. Stent-optimized algorithm image reconstruction decreases ALN but further research is required to define the visibility of in-stent stenosis depending on image reconstruction.
These findings support the view that an enhanced formation of H2S contributes to the liver injury in endotoxemia. We propose that inhibition of H2S synthesis may be a useful therapeutic strategy against the liver injury associated with endotoxemia.
