However, lacerations of solid organs can be overlooked. Although computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard technique for abdominal trauma imaging, overutilization, ionizing radiation, need to transport the patient and potential artifacts are well known disadvantages. Contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) can be used as an imaging tool between the two methods. It can easily and reliably reveal solid abdominal organ injuries in patients with low-energy localized trauma and decrease the number of CT scans performed. It can be rapidly performed at th...

Therefore, the detection of the most suspicious lesion in women with the coexistence of multiple fibroadenomas and phyllodes tumors seems easier.

Incomplete arterial hyperenhancement is more often seen in ICC than in HCC. A rim sign seems to be specific for ICC, but is only rarely present. However, in a case-to-case decision, due to overlapping characteristics, a reliable differentiation between the two tumor types by CEUS alone is very often not possible.

Nonetheless, it has any predictive role for thyroidal status at birth, being not related to TSH levels on neonatal screening for CH.

For the sonographic evaluation of paraurethral pathologies, contrast inversion provides better contour sharpness than B-mode, suggesting a higher diagnostic value for ambiguous anatomical settings. The nature of contrast inversion nevertheless facilitates misinterpretations and requires frequent comparison with B-mode pictures. In conclusion, we propose contrast inversion as an initial screen and a refinement to established diagnostic methods, such as MRI and voiding cysturethrography, not as their substitute.

The predefined ES scoring system provided only poor interobserver agreement. Image selection should be part of the intra- and interobserver evaluation. ES strain ratio seemed promising but larger studies are needed to evaluate this new feature.

The submental approach allows differentiation between intraoral structures. Evaluation of the echogenicity and length of the soft palate is limited.

The stiffness of the normal spleen is much higher than that of the normal liver and increases with age. However, spleen elastography is inferior to liver elastography for the detection of portal hypertension.

Nevertheless, the acceptance of PND was good. Further studies will have to focus on counseling strategies that take into account the specific needs and expectations of pregnant women with different cultural backgrounds.

This may be explained by systematic alterations in other determinants for IVCc. Comparison of methods encourages the use of sagittal 2-dimensional echocardiography for dynamic imaging of the IVC. Sagittal M-mode and transverse 2-dimensional echocardiography overestimate IVCc as compared to sagittal 2-dimensional echocardiography.

Moreover, we reviewed the radiological features of EG with particular regard to the role of sonography in the diagnosis and follow-up of EG, especially in children. We emphasize the utility of sonography in pediatric patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms, since it may provide useful information in a quick, inexpensive and noninvasive way. Ultrasonographic detection of features such as bowel wall thickness, ascites and peritoneal nodules may be largely suggestive of EG and may prevent other invasive exams and abdominal surgery.

We searched the Medline® database through Pubmed® and Scopus database, in order to find articles in which UCA were administered intravenously in patients under the age of 18. We analyzed in detail 9 papers (7 case reports, 2 original research studies), describing the examinations with intravenous administration of the UCA in children, and 23 original papers, in which the study group included at least one individual under the age of 18. Neither of the analyzed studies included any reports of adverse effects after UCA administration.

Part 1 of this review describes the concept of cardiac function and cardiac output and the techniques that have been used to quantify output. Part 2 summarizes the use of arterial and venous Doppler studies in the fetus and gives a detailed description of indirect measurements of cardiac function (like indices derived from the duration of segments of the cardiac cycle) with current examples of their application.

Fetal studies should therefore include reticulocyte count, parameters of hemolysis, peripheral blood smear and fetal liver function tests. Maternal studies should involve a search for fetal red cells using flow cytometry rather than Kleihauer-Betke test.

Transcranial brain tumor sonography emerged in the early nineties and while B-mode imaging and Color-Doppler have acquired widespread use, especially for intraoperative imaging, other ultrasound modalities such as Perfusion Imaging are applied more in the research field. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the different ultrasound modalities and their respective application in sonographic brain tumor imaging.

Based on the findings of our study, it seems necessary to define normal and cut-off values for the ONSD in children again to finally assess the clinical relevance of the ONSD as a noninvasive parameter for the evaluation of intracranial pressure.

Ultrasonography should therefore be favored, especially in younger patients. One needs to be aware of the effects of palpability and patient age on the ultrasonographic differentiation "malignant" vs. "benign". In some cases, mammography should be considered as an adjunct.

The common bile duct dilates significantly 3 months after cholecystectomy. Familiarity with these patterns prevents ultrasound misdiagnosis when examining patients within 6 months of cholecystectomy.

The introduction of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) significantly contributed to the reduction of surgery-induced morbidity in the shoulder-arm region. However, a clinically positive nodal status is still considered a contra-indication for SLNB. The current data constellation clearly shows that the clinical and also the sonographic malignancy assessment is insufficient for the accurate identification of the nodal status. A merely clinical and/or image-based appraisal of the axillary lymph node status would lead to overtreatment due to unnecessary axillary disse...
