Ultrasonographic Vasospasm and Outcome of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy and Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndromes
CONCLUSION: Ultrasonographic vasospasm was detected in a third of patients with PRES/RCVS and was associated with brain ischemic lesions. TCCD bedside monitoring can help to stratify patients at risk for cerebral ischemia, a strong predictor of functional outcome.PMID:37832534 | DOI:10.1055/a-2127-9459 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)

Ultrasound assessment of brain supplying arteries (transcranial)
This article reviews the transcranial color-coded duplex sonographic (TCCS) examination technique including the transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) for a standardized ultrasound assessment of the intracranial arteries and typical pathological cases. As a complementary tool, transorbital ultrasound for the assessment of the optic nerve sheath diameter and adjacent structures is also described in this article.PMID:37832531 | DOI:10.1055/a-2103-4981 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)

Ultrasound Imaging of the Sciatic Nerve
Ultraschall Med. 2023 Oct;44(5):e263-e273. doi: 10.1055/a-2095-2842. Epub 2023 Oct 13.ABSTRACTThe sciatic nerve (SN) is the biggest nerve in the human body and innervates a large skin surface of the lower limb and several muscles of the thigh, leg, and foot. It originates from the ventral rami of spinal nerves L4 through S3 and contains fibers from both the posterior and anterior divisions of the lumbosacral plexus. After leaving the neural foramina, the nerve roots merge with each other forming a single peripheral nerve that travels within the pelvis and thigh. Non-discogenic pathologies of the SN are largely underdiagnos...

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound reveals perfusion differences between benign lipoma and semi-malignant atypical lipomatous tumors: A prospective clinical study
CONCLUSION: CEUS may enhance the differential diagnosis of benign lipomas and ALTs, with ALTs showing higher levels of perfusion. If larger prospective studies confirm these findings, CEUS could enhance diagnostic accuracy, guide surgical planning, and potentially reduce unnecessary treatments for patients presenting with ambiguous lipomatous tumors like lipoma or ALT. Abstract German Ziel: Die Unterscheidung zwischen gutartigen und bösartigen Weichteiltumoren gestaltet sich oftmals herausfordernd. Insbesondere benigne Lipome lassen sich nur schwer von semimalignen atypischen lipomatösen Tumoren (ALT) abgrenzen, welche i...

Ultrasound Diagnosis of Malformations of the Fetal Kidneys and Urinary System
This article presents the typical sonographic findings of these abnormalities during the various stages of pregnancy. Because malformations of the urogenital tract often have an association with genetic diseases/ciliopathies, these are also discussed. To complete the article, we provide a brief overview of the normal anatomy of the kidneys and urinary system. The normal anatomy and malformations of the genitalia will not be discussed in this article due to their complexity.PMID:37769695 | DOI:10.1055/a-2132-6573 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)
