Ultrasonography (US) is the first-line modality for evaluation of vascular pathology. Although well-established many diseases, US has inherent limitations that can occasionally hinder an accurate diagnosis. The value was improved by introduction microbubbles as ultrasonographic contrast agents (UCAs) and emergence contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS), following second-generation UCAs modern contrast-specific techniques. CEUS offers valuable information about disease, both on a...

Abstract Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a unique cancer allowing tumor diagnosis with identification of definitive patterns enhancement on contrast-enhanced imaging, avoiding invasive biopsy. However, it still unclear to what extent Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) clinically useful additional step when Computed tomography (CT) or Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are inconclusive. Methods A prospective international multicenter validation study for CEUS Liver Imaging...

Pediatric pneumonia can be complicated by necrotizing or a parapneumonic effusion either in the form of an empyema clear effusion. Ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography represent well-established modalities for evaluation pediatric pneumonia. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) was recently introduced is gaining increasing acceptance imaging. In this case series, we present our initial experience with both intravenous intracavitary use CEUS children Intravenous accurately confidently...

Abstract The European Federation of Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) created the “EFSUMB Pediatric Registry” (EFSUMB EPR) with purpose collecting data regarding intravenous application pediatric contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). primary aim was to document current clinical practice usefulness technique secondarily assess CEUS safety children. We issue preliminary results this database examine overall children Europe.

Extra-testicular lesions are usually benign but present with nonspecific grey-scale sonography findings. This study assesses conventional sonographic characteristics in the differentiation of extra-testicular tumoural from inflammatory and whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound has a role. A retrospective database analysis was performed. All patients were examined by experienced sonographers employing standard techniques combining grey-scale, colour Doppler ultrasound. Features recorded were:...
