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.
