Value of Endoscopic Ultrasonography-Guided Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) in the Diagnosis of Neoplastic Tumor(-like) Pancreatic Lesions in Daily Clinical Practice.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: EUS-guided FNA allows more precise diagnosis clarification (malignant tumor growth and tumor entity) in solid and cystic pancreatic tumor(-like) lesions, which may assist in early and sufficient therapeutic decision-making.

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Pattern of Splenic Metastases - a Retrospective Study in 32 Patients.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: CEUS of splenic metastases is characterized by reduced contrast enhancement in both the arterial and the parenchymal phase in most cases. Moreover, CEUS improved the visualization of splenic metastases in about 40 % of cases in comparison to standard B-mode sonography.

Inter- and Intraobserver Reliability of Predefined Diagnostic Levels in High-Resolution Sonography of the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - a Validation Study on Healthy Volunteers.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: To use high-resolution ultrasound for the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome, the reproducibility of this method has to be evaluated. Our study confirms examiner-independent reproducibility of two predefined diagnostic cross-sectional areas resulting in good alpha values.

Sonography of the Liver Following CT Staging of Patients with Lung Cancer: A Retrospective Analysis.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: The study demonstrates that a complementary US of the liver in patients with lung cancer may reveal information relevant for treatment. Therefore, liver US may play an important role in the staging of lung cancer. When equivocal small liver lesions are detected with CT, a complementary US examination may help to diagnose these lesions or detect metastases not visible on the single-phase staging CT of the liver.

Follow-up of Children with Prenatal Diagnosis of Supraventricular Extrasystole.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, by the long-term follow-up of 77 children with prenatal SVES we could show that prenatal SVES has a good prognosis. However, 30 % of children develop arrhythmia postpartum and 31 % of children present with cardiac anomalies. These children still have a worse prognosis than children with isolated prenatal SVES.

Measurement of Common Carotid Artery Intima-Media Thickness in Clinical Practice: Comparison of B-Mode and RF-Based Technique.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: CCA-IMT values measured with RF and B-mode have similar reproducibility and exhibit acceptable correlation, but RF CCA-IMT is significantly smaller. The difference between both methods is mainly due to advanced atherosclerosis. Hence, both methods can be used reliably to measure CCA-IMT in clinical practice.

Fetale Gewichtsschätzung mittels 2-D- und 3-D-Ultraschall: Vergleich von 6 Schätzformeln.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: The best option with the highest accuracy for sonographic fetal weight estimation was the 3D Schild equation followed by the 2D Hansmann and Merz formulas. Published data of the accuracy could be reproduced with the exception of the "Asian" 3D equations in our European population. The limited improvement in weight agreement using the 3D technique compared to the 2D technique may be outweighed by the time consumption.

CONCLUSION: The results of our retrospective study show that patients with an ascending thrombophlebitis should undergo ultrasound examination to detect free-floating thrombi reaching into the deep venous system.

CONCLUSION: Severe bleeding complications with a need for transfusion in sonographically guided procedures are rare (0.4 %).

CONCLUSION: The determination of liver size in the medioclavicular line using panorama ultrasonography often leads to the false-positive diagnosis of hepatomegaly. Therefore, the method should not be recommended for routine diagnostic scans. In cases of significant hepatomegaly, however, panorama ultrasonography offers superior visualization compared to conventional B-mode ultrasonography.
