    Summary: "The diagnosis and interventional management of venous disorders is a truly core area in radiology, representing a significant percentage of the caseload of an interventional radiologist-up to 75% in some institutions. Covering common disorders such as venous ulceration and varicose veins (affecting half of adults over the age of 50) as well as such serious disorders such as thromboembolic disease, this book will present the state of the art in minimally invasive diagnosis and management of these disorders. Highly practical and authoritative, this book will open with sections on epidemiology, anatomy, and the basics of venous access and then will cover the wide range of these disorders, with practical guidelines and case examples"-- Provided by publisher.

    The results of controlled clinical trial that used high doses of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer are reported. Two treatment reigmens were used: regimen A, 500 mg daily with a total dose of 30 g; regimen B, 1,000 mg daily with a total dose of 60 g. The overall response rates were similar, with no statistically significant difference between the two treated groups. Regimen A (lower dosage group) reached a remission rate of 44%, whereas regimen B (higher dosage group) had a remission rate of 41%. The mean duration of response was 8 months with regimen A and 9 months with regimen B. The advantages of the lower dosage regimen as opposed to the higher dosage regimen of MPA in the treatment of advanced breast cancer are discussed.
