Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Since the early 20th century, interventional radiology (IR) has evolved greatly, especially in the oncological setting.

The arsenal of modalities at work in IR includes X-ray radiography and fluoroscopy, CT, MRI, US, PET/CT, PET/MRI, and molecular and multimodality imaging within hybrid interventional environments. These techniques have proven to be valuable for the early detection and precise localization of tumor lesions, the accurate determination of tumor stages, and the monitoring of treatment responses.

Current advances in the development of personalized therapeutic concepts in the oncological context are closely linked to image-based precision medicine.

Interventional radiology (IR) will enable new interventional approaches requiring high-precision guidance and quantitative evaluation.

This Special Issue, entitled "Advances in Interventional Radiology in Oncology", will briefly review the major developments in imaging technology in IR over the past century and highlight the role of emerging imaging technologies in enabling high-precision interventions. We will briefly review the technologies that now represent the standard of care and reflect on emerging advances in imaging technology.

Therefore, we encourage researchers (clinicians and scientists) to submit original articles and reviews in order to aid in the development of optimal treatment options for cancer.

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. Journal of Personalized Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.

Impact of Computed Tomography-to-Angiography Interval Time on Outcomes of Transarterial Embolization in Post-Traumatic Bleeding: A Retrospective Observational Study

Background/Objectives: Transarterial embolization nowadays has a pivotal role in non-operative management strategies of post-traumatic bleeding. Timely control of hemorrhage is critical in trauma care; however, the impact of procedural timing remains underexplored. This single-center study, conducted at a Level II trauma center with 24/7 interventional radiology coverage, evaluated the influence of interval time on embolization outcomes in post-traumatic bleeding patients. Methods: In this retrospective study, 182 trauma patients who underwent embolization between June 2020 and June 2025 were analyzed. Patients were stratified by CT-to-angiography interval time (≤1 h [early, n = 46] and >1 h [delayed, n = 136]). Hemodynamic parameters, laboratory values, transfusion needs, and outcomes were compared and adjusted for baseline differences. Results: Early group patients showed more severe baseline physiology, including hypotension, higher lactates, and lower hemoglobin. No significant differences were found in mortality (2.9% vs. 2.5%), hospital stay (18.7 ± 26.1 vs. 18.1 ± 22.2 days), or transfusion requirements. Embolizations within one hour from CT were associated with significant lactate reduction at 24 h in univariate analysis (p = 0.039), but this was not confirmed in multivariate analysis. Re-embolization (8.7% vs. 1.5%, p = 0.036) and surgical rescue (13.0% vs. 3.7%, p = 0.033) rates were more frequent in the early group. Conclusions: Early embolization improves metabolic parameters in post-traumatic bleeding, especially in patients with greater baseline severity of injuries. These findings support prioritization of early embolization and structured interventional radiology networks for timely procedures. A personalized approach according to baseline injury is required.
