Comparison of the clinical and pathological characteristics of ultrasound-guided biopsy for breast masses and non-mass lesions between 16-gauge spring-loaded core needle biopsy and 12-gauge spring-loaded vacuum-assisted biopsy
ConclusionAlthough VAB had a significantly higher rate of non-mass lesion biopsies, the upgrade rate from high-risk to malignant lesions was significantly lower for VAB than for CNB. US-guided 12-gauge spring-loaded VAB may be more appropriate for biopsy of non-mass lesions. (Source: Journal of Medical Ultrasonics)

New ultrasonographic risk assessment of uterine scar dehiscence in pregnancy after cesarean section
ConclusionA model of morphological changes in the niche was constructed based on qualitative and quantitative assessments. The morphological changes and actual thinning of the lower uterine segments were prominent in the second trimester in women considered to have uterine scar dehiscence.
