Improved characterisation of histologically proven liver tumours by contrast enhanced ultrasonography during the portal venous and specific late phase of SHU 508A
TL;DR: PIUS performed during the portal venous and liver specific late phase of Levovist may differentiate between benign and malignant liver tumours in most cases, with the exception of abscesses, scars, necrosis, cysts, and calcifications, which need to be excluded clinically and by conventional B mode ultrasonography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonographic detection of focal liver lesions: increased sensitivity and specificity with microbubble contrast agents.
TL;DR: In this field the use of US contrast agents appears to have advantages over formerly used non contrast-enhanced methods although no conclusive results are available yet.

Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound with low mechanical index: a new technique.
TL;DR: The first use of contrast-enhanced, low mechanical index, real-time endoscopic ultrasound (CELMI-EUS) in six patients using prototype technology preliminarily shown that arterial, portal venous and parenchymal contrast enhancement is possible.
