Benefits of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for interventional procedures [PDF]
For evaluating unclear tumorous lesions, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) is an important imaging modality in addition to contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, and may provide valuable insights into the ...

Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in interventional oncology [PDF]
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has evolved from the use of agitated saline to second generation bioengineered microbubbles designed to withstand insonation with limited destruction. While only one of these newer agents is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use outside echocardiography, interventional radiologists are increasingly ...

Interventional musculoskeletal ultrasonography: Precautions and contraindications. [PDF]
In recent years ultrasonography (US) has emerged as the imaging technique of choice for guiding diagnostic and therapeutic procedures including those related to the musculoskeletal system. However, the absence of ionizing radiation and the elevated safety of the method must not lead us to forget that there are precautions and contraindications to keep ...

Musculoskeletal interventional ultrasonography: the upper limb.
Forty percent of the 823 ultrasound-guided injections performed in our centre over a year and a half concerned the upper limb, injections involving the shoulder, for subacromial bursitis and the treatment of calcific tendinitis, being the prime indications (24%).

Interventional endoscopic ultrasonography for pancreatic cancer.
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) represents the combination of endoscopy and intraluminal ultrasonography. This allows use of a high-frequency transducer (5-20 MHz) that, due to the short distance to the target lesion, provides ultrasonographic images of

Interventional musculoskeletal ultrasonography of the lower limb.
In this case series, out of 823 ultrasound-guided injections carried out over a period of one and a half years, 60% were of the lower limb (LL). In the hip (61% of LL injections), the main indications were pathologies of the gluteal tendons and bursae (80%) and pathologies of periprosthetic soft tissue; in the knee (15% of LL punctures), these ...

Modern patient management in rheumatology: interventional musculoskeletal ultrasonography.
509 performed in an X-ray department and involves radiation exposure. Ultrasound allows accurate and reproducible identification of the anterior part of hip joint and periarticular tissues. Musculoskeletal ultrasonography (MSUS) can detect small or deeply located effusions not found on clinical examination.
