Update in Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound [PDF]
<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.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the spleen [PDF]
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]
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.

Clinical utility of combined contrast-enhanced ultrasound and intracavitary contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the percutaneous treatment of pyogenic liver abscess [PDF]
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the utility of the combined use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and intracavitary CEUS (IC-CEUS) with diluted SonoVue in the management of percutaneous treatment for pyogenic liver abscess (PLA).

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 ...

Renal perfusion in scleroderma patients assessed by microbubble-based contrast-enhanced ultrasound [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Renal damage is common in scleroderma. It can occur acutely or chronically. Renal reserve might already be impaired before it can be detected by laboratory findings.

Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound
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.
