Nahed A. Makhlouf, +2 more
- 01 Jun 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the diagnostic accuracy of arrival time (seconds) to the hepatic artery (HAAT), hepatic vein (HVAT), and portal vein (PVAT) based on contrastenhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) used for the diagnosis of cirrhosis, and to correlate these arrival times with the liver stiffness and disease severity.

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.

Sandro Rossi, +8 more
- 01 Sep 1996 -

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.
