Intervention Using Ultrasonography [PDF]
Intervention using ultrasonography includes injection, aspiration, needling (barbotage), nerve block, tumor biopsy, and removal of the foreign body. The principles of disinfection during skin preparation, as well as handling of the transducer and needle should be maintained.

Intravascular imaging analysis of a drug-eluting balloon followed by a bare metal stent compared to a drug-eluting stent for treatment of de novo lesions [PDF]
Background/Aims After a study comparing drug-eluting stents (DESs) to sequential treatment with drug-eluting balloons (DEBs) and bare metal stents (BMSs), we retrospectively analysed strut malapposition and neointimal hyperplasia in de novo coronary ...

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal vein coiling: troubleshooting interventional endoscopic ultrasonography [PDF]
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS) is widely performed not only as an alternative to transpapillary biliary drainage, but also as primary drainage for malignant biliary obstruction. For anatomical reasons, this technique carries

Interventional Endoscopic Ultrasonography: Present and Future [PDF]
The technical advances in endoscopic ultrasonograpy (EUS) and accessories have enabled performing EUS-guided intervention in the pancreas and biliary tract. Many research centers have been performing or investigating EUS-guided drainage, EUS-guided celiac plexus neurolysis and block, EUS-guided anastomosis that includes choledocho-enterostomy and ...

Pixel-reassignment in Ultrasound Imaging [PDF]
We present an adaptation of the pixel-reassignment technique from confocal fluorescent microscopy to coherent ultrasound imaging. The method, Ultrasound Pixel-Reassignment (UPR), provides a resolution and signal to noise (SNR) improvement in ultrasound imaging by computationally reassigning off-focus signals acquired using traditional plane-wave ...

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 ...

Use of Ultrasound-Assisted, Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis in a Patient With High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism [PDF]
High-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) is a complex clinical entity associated with high mortality rates. Ultrasound-assisted, catheter-directed thrombolysis, typically used for intermediate-risk PE, may be a viable treatment approach for high-risk PE ...
