To evaluate whether short-term treatment with a selective 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-1 (11β-HSD1) inhibitor, AZD4017, would block hepatic cortisol production and thereby decrease fat in patients nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), or without type 2 diabetes (T2D).This was randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase study conducted at two sites. Key inclusion criteria were the presence of NAFLD NASH on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)...
To assess the yield of neck ultrasound (US) when serum thyroglobulin (Tg) is undetectable (<0.1 ng/mL) compared to elevated Tg in patients with differentiated papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) treated thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine 131 (RAI) ablation.A retrospective chart review was conducted from 2010 through 2015 at an academic institution evaluating US results levels obtained within 6 months a examination after RAI. The reference standard for recurrence pathologic US-guided...
Type II endoleak is the most common type of after endovascular repair abdominal aortic aneurysm and has been reported in up to 20-50% patients. Patients undergo lifelong surveillance graft stents monitor for endoleak. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can be an adjunct CT angiography (CTA) which preferred imaging modality surveillance. However, introduces challenges recurring cost, exposure ionizing radiation, need iodinated contrast dye. We report a case using CEUS detection
To test the hypothesis that there is a measureable upward motion of diaphragm during prolonged breath-holds could have detrimental effect on image quality in liver MRI and to identify factor potentially influence magnitude this motion.15 healthy volunteers underwent examination using maximum inspiratory position moderate position. Coronal T1 weighted three-dimensional gradient echo sequences entire thorax were acquired every 6 s breath-holding allowing calculation total lung volume...
Cavernous hemangiomas are benign tumors of vascular origin that can develop in any part the body. However, its occurrence testis is rare. To best our knowledge, we reporting first case a patient with cavernous hemangioma concern for an extracapsular extension on ultrasound imaging.
Thyroid ultrasounds extend surgeons' outpatient capabilities and are essential for operative planning. However, most residents not formally trained in thyroid ultrasound. The purpose of this study was to create a novel ultrasound proficiency metric through collaborative Delphi approach.Clinical faculty experienced participated on panel design the Ultrasound Proficiency Scale (UPS-Thyroid). Participants proposed items under categories Positioning, Technique, Image Capture, Measurement,...
