Journal ArticleDOI
Accuracy of Ultrasonography, Spiral CT, Magnetic Resonance, and Alpha-Fetoprotein in Diagnosing Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Systematic Review
Agostino Colli,Mirella Fraquelli,Giovanni Casazza,Sara Massironi,A. Colucci,Dario Conte,Piergiorgio Duca +6 more
TL;DR: US is highly specific but insufficiently sensitive to detect HCC in many cirrhotics or to support an effective surveillance program, whereas MRI is more sensitive.
Journal ArticleDOI
The diagnostic and economic impact of contrast imaging techniques in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis
Angelo Sangiovanni,Matteo Angelo Manini,Massimo Iavarone,Raffaella Romeo,Laura Forzenigo,Mirella Fraquelli,Sara Massironi,Cristina Della Corte,Guido Ronchi,Maria Grazia Rumi,Piero Biondetti,Massimo Colombo +11 more
TL;DR: In patients with cirrhosis with a 1–2 cm nodule detected during surveillance, a single imaging technique showing a typical contrast pattern confidently permits the diagnosis of HCC, thereby reducing the need for FNB examinations.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Long-term HA administration prolongs overall survival and might act as a disease modifying treatment in patients with decompensated cirrhosis in this trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: COVID-19 is associated with liver function deterioration and elevated mortality in cirrhotic patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, and Severity of lung and liver (according to CLIF-C, CLif-OF and MELD scores) diseases independently predicted mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of US in detection of Crohn disease: meta-analysis.
Mirella Fraquelli,Agostino Colli,Giovanni Casazza,Silvia Paggi,A. Colucci,Sara Massironi,Piergiorgio Duca,Dario Conte +7 more
TL;DR: For Crohn disease limited to the ileum, US may represent a valid alternative to the small-bowel series, while for colonic involvement US may be useful in ruling out the diagnosis.
