The World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (WFUMB) has produced these guidelines the use of elastography techniques liver disease. For each available technique, reproducibility, results, limitations are analyzed, recommendations given. Finally, based on international literature findings WFUMB expert group established as answers to common questions. document a clinical perspective is aimed at assessing usefulness management diseases.
Initially, a set of guidelines for the use ultrasound contrast agents was published in 2004 dealing only with liver applications. A second edition 2008 reflected changes available and updated liver, as well implementing some non-liver Time has moved on, need international on CEUS become apparent. The present document describes third iteration recommendations hepatic enhanced (CEUS) using specific imaging techniques. This joint WFUMB-EFSUMB initiative implicated experts from major leading...
Purpose To investigate the value of two-dimensional (2D) shear-wave elastography (SWE) in assessment hepatic fibrosis patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and to compare diagnostic performance this modality that liver indexes. Materials Methods The ethics committee approved study, informed consent was obtained. From July 2015 May 2016, 539 subjects who underwent partial hepatectomy were divided into groups according Scheuer system by using a resected specimen. All examined 2D SWE...
Abstract Objectives To propose a transfer learning (TL) radiomics model that efficiently combines the information from gray scale and elastogram ultrasound images for accurate liver fibrosis grading. Methods Totally 466 patients undergoing partial hepatectomy were enrolled, including 401 with chronic hepatitis B 65 without pathologically. All received elastography got stiffness measurement (LSM) 2–3 days before surgery. We proposed deep convolutional neural network by TL to analyze of...
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a burgeoning modality for cancer owing to its high tissue-penetrating capability, controllability and safety. Whereas, the undesirable reactive oxygen species (ROS) yield of sonosensitizers tumor hypoxia are two vulnerable spots SDT. Therefore, it an advisable strategy augment ROS level simultaneously relieve SDT arrive full potential in treatment.In this work, defected two-dimensional (2D) Pd/H-TiO2 nanosheets (NSs) with triple antineoplastic properties were...
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index in early pregnancy and development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) second trimester. The primary objectives were evaluate predictive potential TyG for GDM, determine optimal threshold value GDM assessment, compare performance alone versus its combination with maternal age pre-pregnancy body mass on GDM. Moreover, explored risk other pregnancy-related complications (PRCs), such...
PURPOSE: To assess the reliability of contrast material–enhanced real-time gray-scale ultrasonography (US) in evaluating posttreatment response hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty HCC nodules were examined with contrast-enhanced coded phase-inversion harmonic US before and after treatment. Intratumoral vascularity was assessed continuous imaging early arterial phase interval-delay scanning to depict tumor parenchymal flow during blood pool phase. Vascular findings at...
Background: Ultrasonography is the most frequently used clinical tool for identification, assessment, and follow-up of thyroid nodules. The purpose this research was to evaluate value diagnostic ultrasonography indicators, obtain rankings valuable indicators in differential diagnosis nodules, analyze optimal points values. Methods: One hundred forty-four patients with 172 nodules underwent preoperative examinations, including gray-scale (GSUS), color Doppler (CDUS), contrast-enhanced (CEUS)....
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness a contrast-enhanced contrast-specific ultrasonographic technique with low mechanical index for characterization focal liver lesions.Contrast-specific ultrasonography used assess 144 patients 147 lesions: 87 primary carcinomas, 27 hemangiomas, 16 nodular hyperplasias, 5 hepatic abscesses, 3 inflammatory pseudotumors liver, and 9 metastases. A sulfur hexafluoride gas-based contrast agent 0.08 0.11.On ultrasonography, typical hemodynamic...

Objective To assess the usefulness of contrast–enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in differentiating malignant from benign gallbladder (GB) diseases. Methods This study had institutional review board approval. 192 patients with GB diseases 9 university hospitals were studied. After intravenous bonus injection a phospholipid-stabilized shell microbubble contrast agent, lesions scanned low acoustic power CEUS. A multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to identify diagnostic clues 17...
Ultrasonography (renamed from the Journal of Korean Society Ultrasound in Medicine January 2014), official English-language journal (KSUM), is an international peer-reviewed academic dedicated to practice, research, technology, and education dealing with medical ultrasound, Aims Scope:Ultrasonography ultrasound.It published four times per year: 1, April July October 1. Original articles, topical reviews, pictorial essays, notable case reports are covering state-of-the-art content. also...
The objective of this research was to investigate the clinical value contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for prediction cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).One hundred and eighty-six patients with PTC confirmed by fine needle aspiration (FNA) were preoperatively performed CEUS.A multivariate analysis predict CLNM 15 independent variables. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve used evaluate diagnostic performance.There totally 37 pathology....
Abstract The undesirable efficacy of immunotherapy in cancer patients is associated with the inactivation immune responses tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment (TIME). pivotal roles nitric oxide (NO) and peroxynitrite (ONOO − ) immunoregulation can augment anticancer immunotherapy. Here, ultrasound (US)‐responsive nanoparticles (NPs), denoted as Cu‐PG NPs, are elaborately constructed to achieve incremental NO release for gas therapy controlled generation superoxide anion (O 2 •−...
Liver stiffness (LS) measurement with two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) correlates the degree of liver fibrosis and thus indirectly reflects function reserve. The size spleen increases due to tissue proliferation, fibrosis, portal vein congestion, which can reflect situation fibrosis/cirrhosis. It was reported that related posthepatectomy failure (PHLF). So far, there has been no study combining 2D-SWE measurements LS predict PHLF. This prospective aimed investigate utility...
Introduction: It is challenging to diagnose liver masses in the context of a rough background using CT and MRI. Perfluorobutane (PFB) CEUS microbubble, an ultrasound contrast agent, has unique phase called Kupffer phase. This study aimed explore whether diagnostic ability Kupffer-CEUS affected by background. Methods: A prospective analysis was conducted on patients with access histological pathology FLLs parenchyma from 23 centers between August 2020 March 2021. performed 552 patients, who...
Advanced aging invariably triggers an overabundance of apoptosis, stemming from diminished autophagy or a disarray in cellular autophagic processes. This, turn, leads to accelerated breakdown muscle proteins, which exacerbates the ongoing deterioration skeletal and intensifies severity senile sarcopenia.
