Differential Diagnosis of Arterial Phase Enhanced Hepatic Inflammatory Lesions and Hepatocellular Carcinomas with Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound.

TL;DR: Investigating the enhancement patterns of contrast-enhanced ultrasound with SonoVue found CEUS pattern analysis provides important information for differentiating inflammatory liver lesions and HCCs and is helpful for improving diagnostic accuracy.

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) of Pancreatic Cancer

TL;DR: It would be useful a widespread use of CEUS in studying pancreatic lesions found at US, especially in the same session of ultrasound examination, to promote faster diagnosis mainly of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Modellfunktion zur Approximation von Ultraschallkontrastmittelkonzentration zur semi-quantitativen Gewebeperfusionsbestimmung

TL;DR: Das Modell erreichte eine hohere Genauigkeit der Approximation als die zum Vergleich herangezogenen Modelle, which in der Lage ist zusatzlich zu diesem Hauptanstieg weitere Eigenschaften im Zeitverlauf.

Revisión bibliográfica sobre la utilidad de los contrastes ecográficos en el estudio de las masas renales

TL;DR: Como toda tecnica diagnostica, no esta exenta de limitaciones de uso, siendo sus principales inconvenientes the rapidez del lavado del contraste, the ser operador-dependiente, requerir de cierta experience and the necesidad of un software especial for su correcta interpretacion.

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors

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.

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

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

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

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.
