Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound

open access: yesEndoscopic 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.

Update in Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yesVisceral Medicine, 2020
<b><i>Background:</i></b> The aim of modern medicine is to safely classify diseases for successful therapy without invasive measures. Sonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are potent imaging techniques. However, without contrast medium, the informative value of the 3 native methods is limited.

Leiomyoma of the testis: case report, review of literature, and discussing the role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound

open access: yesUrology Case Reports, 2020
Leiomyomas are benign mesenchymal neoplasms that originate from smooth muscle cells. Leiomyoma of the testis is exceedlingly rare. We present a case demonstrating a 1.3 cm hypoehoic mass of the left testis but with significant enhancement on contrast ...

Untargeted Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Versus Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography: A Differential Diagnostic Performance (DDP) Study for Kidney Lesions [PDF]

open access: yesClinics, 2020
OBJECTIVES: Histopathology is the ‘gold standard’ for diagnosing renal cell carcinoma but is limited by sample size. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can differentiate malignant and benign lesions, but the Chinese guidelines on the management of renal cell ...

Ultrasound Despeckling for Contrast Enhancement [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2010
Images produced by ultrasound systems are adversely hampered by a stochastic process known as speckle. A despeckling method based upon removing outlier is proposed. The method is developed to contrast enhance B-mode ultrasound images. The contrast enhancement is with respect to decreasing pixel variations in homogeneous regions while maintaining or ...
