Role of ultrasound in the diagnosis of testicular lesions

Phillip F. C. Lung, +1 more
- 25 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: The salient features of benign and malignant focal intratesticular lesions to allow a confident diagnosis and to prevent unnecessary orchidectomy are covered and the range of intr atesticular malignancies from germ cell tumors to lymphoma and metastases is detail.

Diagnostico y diagnostico diferencial de abscesos hepaticos mediante ecografia con contraste (SonoVue)

T. Fontanilla Echeveste, +5 more
- 01 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: La ecografia con contraste mejora el rendimiento of the ecogravia en el diagnostico diferencial de los abscesos hepaticos, observandose 3 patrones de realce, superponibles a los hallazgos de the tomografía computarizada y resonancia magnetica.

High Mycobacterium tuberculosis Bacillary Loads Detected by Tuberculosis Molecular Bacterial Load Assay in Patient Stool: a Potential Alternative for Nonsputum Diagnosis and Treatment Response Monitoring of Tuberculosis

Emmanuel Musisi, +17 more
- 12 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: The utility of a novel RNA-based quantitative test, the tuberculosis molecular bacterial load assay (TB-MBLA), for the detection and quantification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in stool is investigated, raising the possibility of a nonsputum alternative sample type for diagnosis of TB among people who have difficulty in producing sputum.

Chun Chen, +6 more
- 10 Aug 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the second wave phenomenon was observed in contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) images of mice with subcutaneously-implanted tumor lesions and its potential clinical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors

Patrick Therasse, +10 more
- 02 Feb 2000 - 
TL;DR: A model by which a combined assessment of all existing lesions, characterized by target lesions and nontarget lesions, is used to extrapolate an overall response to treatment is proposed, which is largely validated by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Group and integrated into the present guidelines.

Percutaneous radio-frequency ablation of hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer: long-term results in 117 patients.

Luigi Solbiati, +8 more
- 01 Oct 2001 - 
TL;DR: RF ablation is an effective method to treat hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma and Frequency and time to local recurrence were related to lesion size (P < or =.001).

Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Radio-frequency Ablation of Medium and Large Lesions

Tito Livraghi, +6 more
- 01 Mar 2000 - 
TL;DR: RF ablation appears to be an effective, safe, and relatively simple procedure for the treatment of medium and large HCCs in patients with cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis.

Percutaneous RF interstitial thermal ablation in the treatment of hepatic cancer.

Sandro Rossi, +8 more
- 01 Sep 1996 - 
TL;DR: RF interstitial thermal ablation is a useful percutaneous treatment for hepatic cancer and in the patients treated for metastatic nodules, posttreatment imaging studies showed necrosis that varied from 80% to 100% in all cases.

Pulse inversion Doppler: a new method for detecting nonlinear echoes from microbubble contrast agents

David Hope Simpson, +2 more
- 01 Jan 1999 - 
TL;DR: In vitro measurements comparing flowing agent and cellulose particles suggest that pulse inversion Doppler can provide 3 to 10 dB more agent to tissue contrast than harmonic imaging with similar pulses, and in vitro measurements suggest that broadband pulse inverts can provide up to 16 dB more contrast than broadband conventional Dopplers.
