  1. Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty for fetal critical aortic stenosis (IPG613)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty for fetal critical aortic stenosis. This involves placing a catheter into the baby’s heart, while the baby is still in the womb. The aim is to help the heart develop properly.

  2. Selective internal radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumours that have metastasised to the liver (IPG786)

    Evidence-based recommendations on selective internal radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumours that have metastasised to the liver. This involves injecting tiny radioactive spheres into the blood vessels that supply the liver metastases.

  3. Age-related macular degeneration (NG82)

    This guideline covers diagnosing and managing age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in adults. It aims to improve the speed at which people are diagnosed and treated to prevent loss of sight.

  4. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for primary or secondary lung cancers (IPG372)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for primary or secondary lung cancers. This involves inserting 1 or more electrodes (needle-like probes) through the chest into the lung and using an electrical current to produce heat to destroy the cancer cells.

  5. Refractory extrapulmonary sarcoidosis: infliximab (ES4)

    Summary of the evidence on infliximab for treating refractory extrapulmonary sarcoidosis to inform local NHS planning and decision-making

  6. Cardiac MRI versus other imaging techniques for diagnosing heart failure:- What is the optimal imaging technique for the diagnosis of heart failure?

    structure and metabolism, including the presence of inflammation, scarring, fibrosis and infiltration. Cardiac MRI is an expensive form...

  7. Assessing the risk of cirrhosis:- Development of a risk tool to identify people at risk of cirrhosis.

    identify people who are at high risk of having, or developing, advanced liver fibrosis or cirrhosis.One approach would be to identify a...

  8. Non-invasive tests for diagnosing NAFLD in adults:- Which non-invasive tests are most accurate and cost-effective in identifying non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adults with risk factors, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome?

    2 diabetes mellitus or metabolic syndrome. Untreated it can progress to fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. In most patients...

  9. Electrochemotherapy for primary basal cell carcinoma and primary squamous cell carcinoma (IPG478)

    Evidence-based recommendations on electrochemotherapy for primary basal cell carcinoma and primary squamous cell carcinoma. This involves injecting a chemotherapy drug into the tumour and using electrical pulses to increase its effect.

  10. Insertion of customised titanium implants, with soft tissue cover, for orofacial reconstruction (IPG449)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of customised titanium implants, with soft tissue cover, for orofacial reconstruction. This involves inserting titanium implants to replace broken bones in the face as part of orofacial reconstruction.

  11. Intrabeam radiotherapy system for adjuvant treatment of early breast cancer (TA501)

    Evidence-based recommendations on using Intrabeam radiotherapy during breast-conserving surgery in adults.

  12. Percutaneous intradiscal radiofrequency treatment of the intervertebral disc nucleus for low back pain (IPG545)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous intradiscal radiofrequency treatment of the intervertebral disc nucleus for low back pain. This involves relieving low back pain by delivering heat energy to the damaged disc.

  13. Selective internal radiation therapy for primary hepatocellular carcinoma (IPG460)

    Evidence-based recommendations on selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for primary hepatocellular carcinoma. This involves infusion of microspheres loaded with yttrium-90, which aims to deliver radiation directly into the tumour, minimising the risk of radiation damage to healthy surrounding tissues.
