Non-invasive diagnosis of acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease by a new scoring system using ultrasound morphology, compound elastography, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
Daniela Weber,Markus Weber,Katrin Hippe,Sakhila Ghimire,Daniel Wolff,Joachim Hahn,Matthias Evert,Wolfgang Herr,Ernst Holler,Ernst-Michael Jung +9 more
TL;DR: CEUS is a promising, non-invasive tool for the diagnosis of acute GI GvHD and together with further descriptive parameters for inflammatory processes, it gains significant diagnostic accuracy in identifying patients with severe stages of acute intestinal Gv HD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrast sonovenography – Is this the answer to complex deep vein thrombosis imaging?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated contrastenhanced ultrasound (CEUS) as a viable method to improve visualisation of the venous system of the lower limb, which can sometimes be difficult in hostile limbs due to factors such as large body habitus and oedema.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the diagnosis of endometrial pathology
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to synthesize current knowledge regarding CEUS applications in endometrial pathology, to detail the technical aspects ofendometrial CEUS and the physical properties of the equipment and contrast agents used, as well as to identify the limitations of the method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of Combined Two-Dimensional and Three-Dimensional Transvaginal Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound in the Diagnosis of Endometrial Carcinoma
TL;DR: 3D-CEUS is a useful supplement to 2D- CEUS and can clearly reveal the angioarchitecture spatial relationships between vessels and depth of myometrial invasion in EC, which can offer direct, accurate, and comprehensive diagnosis of early EC.

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors
Patrick Therasse,Susan G. Arbuck,Elizabeth Eisenhauer,Jantien Wanders,Richard Kaplan,Larry Rubinstein,Jaap Verweij,Martine Van Glabbeke,Allan T. van Oosterom,Michaele C. Christian,S. Gwyther +10 more
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,Tito Livraghi,S N Goldberg,T. Ierace,Meloni F,M. Dellanoce,Luca Cova,Elkan F. Halpern,G S Gazelle +8 more
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,S. Nahum Goldberg,Sergio Lazzaroni,Franca Meloni,Tiziana Ierace,Luigi Solbiati,G. Scott Gazelle +6 more
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,M. Di Stasi,Elisabetta Buscarini,Pietro Quaretti,Francesco Garbagnati,L. Squassante,C. Paties,D E Silverman,Luigi Buscarini +8 more
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.
