Study of Risk Factors and Image Findings of Isolated Abdominal Incidentally Detected Aortic Dissection

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 429-435, March/April 2025.
We detect the risk factors and image characteristics of incidentally detected IAAD. Independent risk factors of IAAD included fatty liver and smoking. In the ultrasound findings of IAAD, an intimal flap was frequently observed. In the CT scan, displacement of intimal calcifications was frequently observed. For suspected IAAD, the abdominal aorta should

Best Practice Imaging in the Initial Investigation of Paediatric Blunt Abdominal Trauma: A Narrative Review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This narrative review synthesises current literature regarding paediatric blunt abdominal trauma imaging. It discusses the diagnostic performance of Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma, unenhanced and contrast‐enhanced ultrasound, as well as the impact of clinical decision rules for CT on clinical outcomes and radiation dose savings ...

Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Myasthenia Gravis and Thymoma

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Approximately 20%–30% of patients with a thymoma develop myasthenia gravis (MG), and an additional one third may possess positive acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies without MG.

Quantitative Spatiotemporal Analysis of Ultrasound Images of Fasciculations in ALS

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Fasciculations are a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), yet quantitative description of individual events on muscle ultrasound (MUS) is limited. We characterized the spatiotemporal kinematics of individual fasciculations to determine whether they differ between ALS and other neurogenic conditions.

Ultrasound innovations in diaphragm assessment: an integrative review of expanding clinical applications

European Respiratory Review
Introduction Diaphragm dysfunction is prevalent across various patient populations, requiring precise structural and functional assessment. Ultrasound, being bedside-accessible and radiation-free, has gained relevance for evaluating the diaphragm and ...

Exploring the Value of Quantitative Muscle Ultrasound in Neuromuscular Junction Disorders: A Pilot Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...

Actuation Strategies for Underwater Jet‐Propelled Soft Robots

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review article examines jet‐propulsion mechanisms in underwater soft robotic systems, focusing exclusively on physically fabricated and experimentally validated robots. Covering research published from 2013 to 2025, this study classifies and evaluates jet‐propulsion robots based on their actuation mechanisms.

A Label‐Free Ultraviolet Photoacoustic Microscopy Enables Nuclear Imaging and Toxicity Assessment in an Intact Brain Organoid

Small, EarlyView.
Ultraviolet photoacoustic microscopy enables label‐free visualization of nuclear morphology in intact human brain organoids. By exploiting endogenous nucleic acid absorption at 266 nm, this approach resolves individual nuclei without staining or sectioning.
