About the Lab
Professor Seabeom Hur's research lab specializes in diagnostic and interventional radiology, with a focus on optimizing computed tomography protocols for improved lesion detection in liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The lab investigates low-dose, low-tube-voltage CT techniques combined with advanced image reconstruction algorithms like IRIS to enhance lesion-to-liver contrast while minimizing radiation exposure. Additional research interests include perfusion imaging for peripheral vascular disease, endovascular interventions for gastrointestinal bleeding, and advanced imaging of post-surgical complications such as lymphatic leakage. The lab integrates clinical radiology with interventional techniques to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.

15OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the low-tube-voltage (80-kVp), intermediate-tube-current (340-mAs) MDCT using the Iterative Reconstruction in Image Space (IRIS) algorithm improves lesion-to-liver contrast at reduced radiation dosage while maintaining acceptable image noise in the detection of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) in thin (mean body mass index, 24 ± 0.4 kg/m(2)) adults. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A phantom simulating the liver with HCC was scanned at 50-400 mAs for 80, 100, 120 and 140-kV

Perfusion CT could be used to measure foot blood flow in both animals and humans. It can be a useful modality for the diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease by providing quantitative information on foot perfusion status.
In a patient with asymptomatic small submucosal mass in the duodenal first or second portion, hypoattenuated mass with peripheral rimlike enhancement or internal cystic change suggests the possibility of Brunner's gland hamartoma.
Post-operative lymphatic leakage is a common complication of a radical gynecologic surgery involving aggressive lymph node dissection. Its manifestation varies from asymptomatic lymphoceles to life-threatening chylous ascites. In the past, nuclear medicine lymphoscintigraphy was the sole imaging modality for the confirmation of the leakage, of which application is limited due to its poor spatial resolution. While a conservative treatment with percutaneous drainage was the mainstream treatment me
Recent advances in lymphatic imaging have provided novel insights into the lymphatic system. Interventional radiology has played a significant role in the development of lymphatic imaging techniques and modalities. Radiologists should be familiar with the basic physiology and anatomy of the lymphatic system to understand the imaging features of lymphatic disorders, which reflect their pathophysiology. This study comprehensively reviews the physiological and anatomical aspects of the human lympha
To investigate computed tomography and angiography findings and clinical outcomes after transcatheter arterial embolization for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding from advanced gastric cancers.From January 2005 to December 2014, 58 patients with pathologically proven gastric cancer were treated at our institution with transcatheter arterial embolization due to acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding recalcitrant to endoscopic treatment. The electronic medical records for each patient were revie
