The diagnostic and economic impact of contrast imaging techniques in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis
Angelo Sangiovanni,Matteo Angelo Manini,Massimo Iavarone,Raffaella Romeo,Laura Forzenigo,Mirella Fraquelli,Sara Massironi,Cristina Della Corte,Guido Ronchi,Maria Grazia Rumi,Piero Biondetti,Massimo Colombo +11 more
TL;DR: In patients with cirrhosis with a 1–2 cm nodule detected during surveillance, a single imaging technique showing a typical contrast pattern confidently permits the diagnosis of HCC, thereby reducing the need for FNB examinations.

Radiofrequency thermal ablation of liver tumors
Elisabetta Buscarini,Agostino Savoia,G. Brambilla,Fernanda Menozzi,Luigi Reduzzi,Deike Strobel,J. Hänsler,Luigi Buscarini,Luigi Gaiti,Alessandro Zambelli +9 more
TL;DR: Radiofrequency ablation of liver tumors is an emerging percutaneous therapeutic option both for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and for non-resectable liver metastases, mainly from colorectal cancer.

Echo-enhanced ultrasound voiding cystography in children: a new approach.
TL;DR: USVC may represent a reliable diagnostic tool for the detection and follow-up of VUR in children with direct radionuclide voiding cystography (DRVC) and the overall sensitivity and specificity were 79% and 92%, respectively.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography better identifies pancreatic tumor vascularization than helical CT.
Mirko D'Onofrio,Roberto Malago,Giulia Zamboni,Simone Vasori,Massimo Falconi,Paola Capelli,Giancarlo Mansueto +6 more
TL;DR: CEUS, when the pancreatic gland is optimally visualized, should be considered a complementary imaging modality in the characterization of pancreatic tumors and can be a valid onco-imaging modality for quantifying tumoral vascularization in a noninvasive and accurate way.

Comparison of contrast-enhanced sonography and MRI in displaying anatomic features of cystic pancreatic masses.
Mirko D'Onofrio,Alec J. Megibow,Niccolò Faccioli,Roberto Malago,Paola Capelli,Massimo Falconi,Roberto Pozzi Mucelli +6 more
TL;DR: Contrast-enhanced sonography compares favorably with MRI in displaying the anatomic features of cystic pancreatic masses seen on transabdominal sonography.

TL;DR: Contrast harmonic sonography helps in the placement of radiofrequency ablation electrodes in hypervascular hepatocellular carcinomas that cannot be adequately depicted by B-mode sonography.
