Intraoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasound has an outcome-relevant impact on surgery of primary and metastatic liver lesions
CONCLUSION: CE-IOUS may significantly increase R0 resection rates and should therefore be used routinely as an additional staging method, especially in complex liver surgery.PMID:38335990 | DOI:10.1055/a-2249-6791 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)

Non-invasive diagnostic imaging of Pelvic Venous Disorders
Ultraschall Med. 2024 Feb 7. doi: 10.1055/a-2263-7193. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIt is estimated that the problem of Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) may concern up to 24% of women. Unfortunately, very often, despite extensive diagnostics, the cause of CPP remains unknown. The pathophysiology of CPP could be explained to a large extent by the occurrence of Pelvic Venous Disorders (PVD). Although pelvic venography is still considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of PVD, non-invasive diagnostic imaging techniques seem to be instrumental in the initial identification of patients with PVD. This literature review aimed to a...

Bridging the Notch: Quantification of the End Diastolic Notch to Better Predict Fetal Growth Restriction
CONCLUSION: Quantifying the diastolic notch at 16-26 weeks of gestation did not provide any added benefit in terms of prediction of neonatal birth weight below the 10th or 5th percentile for gestational age, compared with uterine artery pulsatility index.PMID:38295834 | DOI:10.1055/a-2257-8557 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)

3D ultrasound evaluation of fetal ears in prenatal syndrome diagnosis - a comparative study
Conclusion Ears of fetuses with Trisomy 18 were smaller than their matched controls. Syndromal fetuses varied in the evaluation of their ear surface from those of healthy fetuses. The ear surface can be analyzed with 3D ultrasound and might be useful as a screening parameter in syndrome diagnosis in the future. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Ziel Ziel unserer Studie war es Oberflächenmuster und Messwerte der Ohren syndromaler und gesunder Feten mithilfe pränatalen 3D-Ultraschalls zu bestimmen und zu vergleichen. Material und Methode Unsere Studie basiert auf 3D-Ultraschallbildern von 100 Feten zwischen der 20. und 37. Schwangerschaftsw...

Sonography of the pleura
This article explains the special features of the examination technique with knowledge of the pre-test probability and describes the indications for pleural sonography. Pleural sonography has a high value in emergency and intensive care medicine, preclinical, outpatient and inpatient, in the general practitioner as well as in the specialist practice of pneumologists. The special features in childhood (pediatrics) as well as in geriatrics are presented. The recognition of a pneumothorax even in difficult situations as well as the assessment of pleural effusion are explained. With the high-resolution technology, both the ple...

Prognostic relevance of ARFI elastography in comparison to liver histology and the FIB-4 score
CONCLUSION: The prognostic value of ARFI elastography seems to not be inferior to liver histology regarding liver-related survival and might even outperform histology and the FIB-4 score for predicting some liver-related complications.PMID:38171381 | DOI:10.1055/a-2178-4808 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)

Ultrasound Changes in Salivary Glands after Radioactive Iodine Treatment in Benign Diseases and Differentiated Cancer of Thyroid Glands in Consideration of Dose and Time Dependency
CONCLUSION: Our results point to a dose and time dependency of pathologic US findings in RAIT-induced effects on the major salivary glands. Based on the US findings, a better estimation of the current impact of RAIT on the salivary glands and the further prognosis appears possible.PMID:38171382 | DOI:10.1055/a-2190-6751 (Source: Ultraschall in der Medizin)
