To assess the diagnostic performance of multislice computed tomography (MS-CT) in classification atypical or complex cystic renal masses using Bosniak system comparison to contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and, unclear cases, surgery findings.Thirty-two consecutive patients (14 women, 18 men; age range 39-72 years) with 37 at MS-CT underwent conventional (US) and CEUS. CEUS employed a low-MI technique 1.6-2.4 ml SonoVue (Bracco, Italy) i.v. 2-4 MHz multifrequency transducer (Siemens,...
Background and purpose: Until recently clinical diagnosis of chronic renal allograft dysfunction could only be established invasively by biopsy. Given the risks that procedure, a non-invasive, diagnostic test would very advantageous. Nove
Abstract Introduction Circulatory dysfunction in cirrhotic patients may cause a specific kind of functional renal failure termed hepato-renal syndrome (HRS). It contributes to the high incidence intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Fluid therapy aggravate by increasing ascites and intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). This study investigates short-term effects paracentesis on haemodynamics kidney function volume resuscitated with HRS. Methods Nineteen consecutive HRS were studied. parameters...
It was the aim of our study to combine findings contrast-enhanced ultrasound and ARFI-imaging in evaluation renal masses comparison histological findings.Fifteen patients with unclear kidney lesions were analyzed. We used a high-end machine (Siemens ACUSON S2000, Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) multifrequency curved array 4 MHz or linear 9 transducer. Contrast-enhanced (bolus injection 1.6-2.4 ml SonoVue carried out. obtained fifteen ARFI measurements from each patient at least five...
Background and purpose: Beyond the medical history, clinical exam lab findings, non-invasive ultrasound parameters such as kidney size Doppler values (e.g. resistive index) are important tools assisting decision making in
Purpose To evaluate a multimodal pathway in solitary circumscribed parotid gland lesions (PL) to predict tumor dignity and avoid repeat surgery. Materials Methods 202 patients with PL underwent medical history, clinical examination, high-resolution B-mode ultrasound (US), real-time sonoelastography (RTE), color-coded duplex sonography (CDS), contrast-enhanced (CEUS). Malignancy was suspected when: 1. reported on previous cutaneous head neck (H&N) malignancy; 2. presented synchronous H&N...
Abstract The well-established Bosniak renal cyst classification is based on contrast-enhanced computed tomography determining the malignant potential of cystic lesions. Ultrasound has not been incorporated into this pathway. However, development ultrasound contrast agents coupled with superior resolution makes it possible to redefine imaging In position statement, an EFSUMB Expert Task Force reviews, analyzes, and describes accumulated knowledge limitations presents current use in evaluation
Renal cysts comprise benign and malignant entities. Risk assessment profits from CT/MRI imaging using the Bosniak classification. While Bosniak-IIF, -III, -IV cover complex cyst variants, Bosniak-IIF -III stand out due to notorious overestimation. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is promising overcome this deficit but warrants standardization. This study addresses benefits of a combined CEUS evaluation renal cysts. The provides realistic account kidney tumor boards' intricacies in trying validate
Objective To determine if increased liver stiffness (ILS) is a risk factor for patients with alcohol withdrawal to develop severe symptoms (SAWS) like delirium tremens (DT) or seizures (WS). Method Prospective inclusion of 394 undergoing treatment between 2013-2021. Laboratory exams, history, physical examination, abdominal sonography elastography and FibroScan® measurements were performed. Primary endpoint was SAWS defined as DT and/or WS. Patients > 12.5 kPa in 1.75 m/s Acoustic...
Zusammenfassung Die moderne Ultraschalldiagnostik hat einen festen Stellenwert als erste und ubiquitär verfügbare Bildgebung in der Urologie. Das Zeitalter Taschenultraschallgeräte ermöglicht den Einsatz hochmobil am Patientenbett bei jeglichen urologischen Fragestellungen. Daneben schafft technische Fortschritt Ultraschall-Mittelklasse- -High-End-Geräten zum Verbesserungen bestehenden B-Bild-Sonografie, insbesondere hochauflösenden Ultraschallsonden mit größerer Eindringtiefe, anderen...
Increasing evidence suggests that arterial hypertension (AHT) may begin in childhood and result the premature development of cardiovascular disease. In view this, we believed it would be important to investigate early vascular changes related at micro- macrovascular levels both under normal circumstances after cold-induced sympathetic stimulation.In a cohort 121 adolescent subjects, measured peripheral central blood pressure (pBP cBP, respectively), pulse (PP), augmentation index (AIx), as...
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to describe a novel method visualize the position central venous catheters, which safe, expeditious, and less expensive than routine postprocedural chest radiograph. Design: Retrospective comparative study. Setting: Dialysis Center Department Nephrology, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany. Patients: Two hundred two adult patients undergoing catheter placement for dialysis, plasmapheresis, or administration...
