Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the spleen [PDF]

Ultrasound, 2016
Abnormalities in the spleen are less common than in most other abdominal organs. However, they will be regularly encountered by ultrasound practitioners, who carefully evaluate the spleen in their abdominal ultrasound studies. Conventional grey scale and Doppler ultrasound are frequently unable to characterise focal splenic abnormalities; even when ...

Contrast‐enhanced endoscopic ultrasound [PDF]

Digestive Endoscopy, 2013
Compared to other imaging modalities, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has limitations in terms of image enhancement. However, with the availability of contrast agents in ultrasonography, EUS has evolved. Contrast‐enhanced Doppler EUS (CD‐EUS) enhances Doppler signals from vessels and is useful for characterizing lesions detected by EUS.

Evaluation of renal perfusion in hyperthyroid cats before and after radioiodine treatment [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Hyperthyroidism and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are common in elderly cats. Consequently, both diseases often occur concurrently. Furthermore, renal function is affected by thyroid status. Because changes in renal perfusion play an important

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound

BioMed Research International, 2015
The recent decade has witnessed the great improvement of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and its extensive use in clinical practice, which is undoubtedly the major breakthrough in the field of diagnostic ultrasound in recent years. The concept of CEUS can be looked back to 60s in the last century, whereas only in 2000s CEUS regained increasing ...

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of pediatric lungs [PDF]

Pediatric Radiology, 2021
AbstractIn addition to radiography, ultrasound (US) has long proved to be a valuable imaging modality to evaluate the pediatric lung and pleural cavity. Its many inherent advantages, including real-time performance, high spatial resolution, lack of ionizing radiation and lack of need for sedation make it preferable over other imaging modalities such as

Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound

Endoscopic Ultrasound, 2012
The European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) introduced guidelines on the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in 2004. This EFSUMB-document focused mainly on liver applications. However, new applications extending beyond the liver were developed thereafter.
