Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound of the Kidneys
2009Several imaging techniques can be used for visualization of the kidneys dependent on the indication. Ultrasound (US), computerized tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are most commonly used. US is a safe, relatively inexpensive, noninvasive, and widely available imaging method.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in sheep
Small Ruminant Research, 2017Abstract Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a recent imaging technique that uses microbubble contrast agents to obtain additional information relating to tissue vascularity and tissue perfusion. In veterinary medicine, CEUS has proven its usefulness in a large variety of diseases, mainly in dogs and cats.

Contrast enhanced ultrasound in liver imaging
European Journal of Radiology, 2004Ultrasound contrast agents were originally introduced to enhance the Doppler signals when detecting vessels with low velocity flow or when imaging conditions were sub-optimal. Contrast agents showed additional properties, it was discovered that a parenchymal enhancement phase in the liver followed the enhancement of the blood pool. Contrast agents have

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in pregnancy
Abdominal RadiologyThere are complex problems related to diagnostic imaging of the pregnant patient Cross sectional imaging with computed tomography (CT) tends to be avoided to due to the risk radiation poses to the fetus and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be limited due to avoidance of gadolinium contrast.While ultrasound (US) is the primary test for imaging in ...

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in abdominal trauma
European Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2012Increasing evidence supports a role for contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the assessment of blunt abdominal trauma. Accurate definition of organ injury can be demonstrated, as well as extension to solid organ capsule and even vascular injury. Low-dose contrast is needed for renal imaging, to avoid obscuration of deeper structures from intense cortical ...

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in urology
2018In contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS), micrometer-sized, encapsulated, gas-filled microbubbles are employed to enhance the signals in ultrasound imaging. Since the microbubbles remain intravascular, CEUS is able to visualize perfusion of various tissues.

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound of Epiploic Appendagitis
Ultraschall in der Medizin - European Journal of Ultrasound, 2009To present our experience with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in patients with epiploic appendagitis (EA).From May 2005 to December 2007, 15 patients with the clinical and B-mode sonographic diagnosis of EA (13 men and 2 women, aged 11 - 78 years) were included in the study. All patients were examined by CEUS. The extent of contrast enhancement of

Safety of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound [PDF]
, 2020 Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is being used increasingly frequently for paediatric diagnostic examinations. Although most applications involve ‘off label’ use of stabilised microbubble contrast agents, it is generally assumed that CEUS is a safe technique, presenting less risk than contrast-enhanced X-rays, and a similar risk to magnetic ...

Quantitative Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound
2020Quantitative contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) enables an objectives assessment of lesion or organ vascularity and perfusion. This chapter describes the different methods of quantitative CEUS and its various parameters, its potential and limitation and the requirements to obtain standardized and reproducible measurements.
