Diagnosis by Resolution: Ultrasound Follow‐Up of Neonatal Polypoid Cystitis Mimicking Botryoid Rhabdomyosarcoma

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In neonatal bladder masses, benign inflammatory conditions like polypoid cystitis can mimic malignancy on ultrasound. In stable neonates with evidence of infection, short‐interval ultrasound follow‐up after antibiotic therapy allows “diagnosis by resolution.” This conservative approach safely avoids unnecessary invasive procedures while maintaining ...

Characteristics of ascitic fluid and diagnosis of bacterial peritonitis in malignant ascites: An observational study

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial peritonitis in patients with malignant ascites (BP‐MA) is an understudied, high‐mortality condition. While ascitic polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell count ≥ 250 cells/mm3 defines the diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) in patients with cirrhosis, an ascitic fluid parameter for the diagnosis of BP‐MA has not ...

Understanding the Concept of Self‐Performed Ultrasound: A Scoping Review

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Self‐performed ultrasound is an emerging technology that facilitates adept self‐scans in untrained hands. Inspired by self‐performed imaging in space for more prompt diagnosis and therapy, it has the potential to accurately monitor chronic conditions remotely. However, the lack of supervision and physical restraints can hinder its usability.
