CD19 CAR T-cells represent a practice-changing treatment modality for advanced B-cell malignancies. However, refractory cytopenias have emerged as potentially life-threatening complication that can persist long after lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Whether stem cell rescue is feasible and efficacious CAR-T has not been addressed. In this retrospective multi-center study, we describe clinical characteristics outcomes of 13 patients with hyporegenerative bone marrow (BM) failure CAR-T, which...
ABSTRACT Purpose To analyze and describe the contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) patterns of peripheral lung lesions in patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) confirmed on CT angiography or scintigraphy. Methods CEUS had been performed 35 detected gray‐scale imaging as PE. The following data were evaluated retrospectively: (1) accumulation contrast medium (absent present), (2) differentiation between arterial (PA) bronchial blood supply, (3) contrast‐enhancement pattern (absent/nonhomogeneous...
Abstract Purpose To describe the vascularization of peripheral lung carcinoma in CEUS and to compare with B-mode ultrasound (US) clinical data. Materials Methods From April 2004 until September 2015, n = 89 patients were investigated by US CEUS. The extent (EE: hypoechoic, hyperechoic), homogeneity (HE: homogeneous, inhomogeneous) time enhancement (TE) have been defined. Early pulmonary-arterial (PA) before contrast floating thoracic wall was differentiated from simultaneous or delayed...
To describe perfusion patterns of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) in COVID-19 patients using contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).From April 2020 until July 2020, 11 consecutive with RT-PCR-confirmed and PPLs sized over 5 mm were investigated by B-mode (B-US) CEUS. The homogeneity enhancement (homogeneous inhomogeneous) was examined retrospectively An inhomogeneous defined as a perfused lesion coexisting non-perfused areas (NPA).On B-US, all showed an interstitial syndrome (B-lines)...
<b>Purpose:</b> Description of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) patterns hepatic lymphoma. <b>Materials and Methods:</b> Over a period 6 years 1 month from January 2006 to 2012, n = 38 patients with histological or clinically apparent lymphoma were studied by means CEUS prior B-mode imaging. <b>Results:</b> Using imaging, lesions hypoechoic in 37 (97.4 %) cases, while focal lesion was echo-rich case (2.6 %). For comparison, CEUS, hyperenhanced signal during the arterial phase observed 9...
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic yield of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS)-guided biopsy retroperitoneal masses (RMs). Materials and Methods Between 2006 2023, 87 patients presented at our US center for an RM. In all biopsies, CEUS was performed prior to intervention. The technical success rate biopsy, presence tissue in solid tumor samples, accuracy occurrence post-interventional complications were evaluated. Results A US-guided could be conducted 84/87 cases (96.6%). 3/87...
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the value of B‐mode imaging and contrast‐enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in patients with clinically suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) but no evidence central PE on CT. Methods Between May 2004 February 2015, we included this retrospective study 19 a risk profile for according to their Wells' score, sonographic patterns peripheral embolic consolidations (EC) B‐mode‐imaging CEUS (ie, missing or inhomogeneous enhancement pleural lesions), exclusion by CT within 1...
Purpose: To evaluate the value of CEUS in differentiating malignant from benign pleural effusions (PEs). Methods: From 2008 to 2017, 83 patients with PEs unknown cause were examined using B-mode thoracic ultrasound (B-TUS), CEUS, and cytological examination. The extent enhancement thickening, presence septa or a solid mass within PE, homogeneity associated lung consolidation, examined. Subsequently, diagnostic cytology, B-TUS, was determined. Results: With markedly enhanced thickening...
Abstract Objective The purpose of this case series is to evaluate the diagnostic potential contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in patients with clinically suspected pulmonary embolism (PE), suspicious pleural lesions, and negative computed tomography angiogram (CTPA). Patients/Methods Between January 2017 2018, we examined an intermediate or a high‐risk Wells score CTPA lung B‐mode (LUS). In total six patients, defects were identified further by CEUS. Nonenhancing lesions those inhomogeneous...
To describe the perfusion patterns of peripheral pulmonary granulomatous lesions (PPGLs) by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and their correlation with vascularization (VPs) represented immunohistochemical (CD34) endothelial staining.From January 2007 until September 2020, 10 consecutive patients histologically confirmed PPGLs were investigated CEUS. The time to enhancement, classified as early pulmonary-arterial (PA) pattern enhancement versus delayed bronchial-arterial (BA) extent...
This retrospective study aimed to describe the B-mode lung ultrasound (B-LUS) and contrast-enhanced (CEUS) follow-up patterns of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) in patients with confirmed embolism (PE).Data from 27 a diagnosis PE PPLs over 5 mm October 2009 November 2018 were included retrospectively study. The inclusion criteria performance baseline CEUS examination, short-term B-LUS follow-up, long-term PPLs. homogeneity enhancement (homogeneous/inhomogeneous/absent) on presence size...
Objectives Whole surgical lymph node excision (SNE) is considered the standard diagnostic method in primary diagnosis of lymphadenopathy (LA) suspected malignancy. Ultrasound‐guided full core needle biopsy (UFCNB) offers an alternative to SNE. This study examined accuracy UFCNB unexplained LA 793 cases. Methods From January 2006 June 2015, a total cases unknown origin received UFCNB. The nodes were located peripherally (68%) or abdominally (32%). final diagnoses from histopathologic...
Purpose: To describe the perfusion patterns of peripheral organizing pneumonia (POP) by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and their correlation with vascularization (VPs) represented immunohistochemical CD34 endothelial staining. Methods: From October 2006 until December 2020, 38 consecutive patients histologically confirmed POPs were standardized-examined CEUS. The time to enhancement (TE; classified as an early pulmonary-arterial [PA] pattern vs. delayed bronchial-arterial [BA]...
ObjectivesTo evaluate the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) perfusion patterns in differentiation benign and malignant retroperitoneal masses (RMs).MethodsBetween 2006 2023, 122 consecutive patients with an RM visualizable by B-mode US were investigated additionally CEUS. On CEUS, extent enhancement (classified as marked, reduced, or absent) homogeneity (HE; classified homogeneous inhomogeneous) evaluated. Subsequently, malignancy rate according to CEUS was determined.ResultsOn...
