Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent advancements in diagnostic and interventional radiology have significantly enhanced medical imaging precision and expanded therapeutic capabilities through innovations in advanced imaging modalities and minimally invasive techniques, leading to reduced invasiveness and recovery time. These developments enable earlier disease detection, personalized treatment planning, and improved patient outcomes across diverse clinical settings.

This Special Issue aims to serve as a platform for researchers, clinicians, and engineers to share cutting-edge findings in image-guided diagnostics and interventions. It particularly encourages submissions from authors exploring clinical impact of interventional radiology procedures, AI-driven imaging analytics, novel interventional devices, and translational research bridging radiology with oncology, neurology, cardiovascular sciences, and emerging fields like radiomics. By emphasizing rigor and innovation, this Special Issue seeks to advance patient care through multidisciplinary collaboration and technology dissemination.

We look forward to your submissions.

Dr. Francesco Giurazza

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Diagnostics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Background/Objectives: The course of treatment for renal artery stenosis following renal transplantation depends on the severity of the condition. Mild cases are typically managed medically, while more significant stenosis with flow limitation and graft dysfunction requires percutaneous intervention. Surgical treatment is generally reserved as a last resort. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of interventional radiology in managing renal artery stenosis at our transplant center. Methods: The electronic medical records of patients who underwent renal transplantation at our center between January 2020 and December 2024 were reviewed to identify cases of renal artery stenosis and their subsequent management through interventional radiology. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected for both recipients and donors. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 26. Results: Out of the total 368 patients who received renal allograft at our center from January 2020 to December 2024, 25 patients were confirmed with duplex ultrasound to have renal artery stenosis. The majority of affected patients were African American, had Class I Obesity and presented with cardiovascular co-morbidities. The mean time from transplant to the diagnosis of RAS was 4.25 (SD ± 3.81) months. The mean serum creatinine level at presentation was 2.54 (SD ± 1.21 mg/dL). All 25 patients underwent digital subtraction angiography, and 24 patients were confirmed to have renal artery stenosis requiring further intervention. The creatinine levels at one week, three months and one year post-intervention were 2.12 (SD ± 1.00), 1.83 (SD ± 0.63) and 2.15 (SD ± 1.68) mg/dL, respectively. Conclusions: Percutaneous interventional treatment for renal artery stenosis is associated with improvements in hemodynamic parameters and the stabilization of allograft function. Follow-up is needed to monitor for the potential occurrence of restenosis. Full article
