Prospects of perfusion contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CE-US) in diagnosing axillary lymph node metastases in breast cancer: a comparison with lymphatic CE-US
AbstractAccurate diagnosis of lymph node (LN) metastasis is vital for prognosis and treatment in patients with breast cancer. Imaging 1modalities such as ultrasound (US), MRI, CT, and 18F-FDG PET/CT are used for preoperative assessment. While conventional US is commonly recommended due to its resolution and sensitivity, it has limitations such as operator subjectivity and difficulty detecting small metastases. This review shows the microanatomy of axillary LNs to enhance accurate diagnosis and the characteristics of contrast-enhanced US (CE-US), which utilizes intravascular microbubble contrast agents, making it ideal for ...

Effect of proteinuria at relapse on shear wave velocity assessed using ultrasound elastography in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome
ConclusionsSWV decreased in the presence of severe proteinuria at relapse compared to the remission measurements. Although more cases need to be studied, the decrease in SWV may reflect the mechanism by which protein leaks into the urine, not just a direct change caused by the presence of proteinuria.

Assessment of drainage vein of focal nodular hyperplasia using contrast-enhanced ultrasound
ConclusionOur study showed that rapid FNH drainage to the hepatic vein was observed at a relatively high rate on CEUS, suggesting that CEUS focusing on detection of drainage veins is important for diagnosing FNH. (Source: Journal of Medical Ultrasonics)

Usefulness of “AcT ratio” in diagnosis of internal carotid artery stenosis: a multicenter, retrospective, observational study
ConclusionsThe findings of this multicenter, retrospective, cross-sectional study suggest that the AcT ratio is useful for diagnosing ICA-origin stenosis, especially for diagnosis by exclusion. NASCET stenosis of ≥ 50% was considered unlikely if the Act ratio was ≤ 1.17, whereas NASCET stenosis of ≥ 70% was considered unlikely if it was ≤ 1.22. (Source: Journal of Medical Ultrasonics)

Facilitatory effect of low-pulse repetition frequency ultrasound on release of extracellular vesicles from cultured myotubes
ConclusionThis study investigated the effect of three different pulse repetition frequencies of US on the release of EVs from cultured myotubes. It is concluded that a low-pulse repetition frequency of 1 Hz is the most effective for enhancing EV release from cultured myotubes with pulsed ultrasound. (Source: Journal of Medical Ultrasonics)

First tarsometatarsal joint mobility in hallux valgus during gait: A synchronized ultrasound and three-dimensional motion capture analysis
ConclusionThe hypermobility of the first tarsometatarsal joint, especially plantar displacement of the medial cuneiform in the sagittal plane, was found in young individuals with hallux valgus during the stance phase of gait, and the mobility increased with the severity of hallux valgus. Our findings suggest the significance of preventing hallux valgus deformity early in life. (Source: Journal of Medical Ultrasonics)
