Guidelines and good clinical practice recommendations for Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) in the liver - update 2012: A WFUMB-EFSUMB initiative in cooperation with representatives of AFSUMB, AIUM, ASUM, FLAUS and ICUS.

TL;DR: These liver CEUS guidelines and recommendations are intended to create standard protocols for the use and administration of UCA in liver applications on an international basis and improve the management of patients worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

The EFSUMB guidelines and recommendations for the clinical practice of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in Non-Hepatic Applications: Update 2017 (Long Version)

TL;DR: The updated version of the EFSUMB guidelines on the application of non-hepatic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) deals with the use of microbubble ultrasound contrast outside the liver in the many established and emerging applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

The diagnostic and economic impact of contrast imaging techniques in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis

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.

Detection of Posterior Urethral Valves with Voiding Cystourethrosonography With Echo Contrast

M. Bosio, +1 more
TL;DR: The male posterior urethra can be effectively visualized with voiding cystourethrosonography, which can differentiate normal from the pathological obstructive urethral findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ability of a phase shift US contrast agent to improve imaging of the main renal arteries.

TL;DR: Use of the phase shift contrast agent appears to enable a reduction in the number of equivocal findings of renal artery stenosis.

Hypoechoic focal liver lesions: Characterization with contrast enhanced ultrasonography

TL;DR: To evaluate the late sinusoidal phase of contrast enhancement with a 2nd‐generation ultrasound contrast enhanced medium in the characterization of hypoechoic focal liver lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contrast enhanced reflux sonography in children: a comparison to standard radiological imaging.

TL;DR: The results clearly demonstrate that the diagnostic accuracy of vesicoureteral reflux by contrast enhanced ultrasound is statistically significant compared to standard radiological voiding cystourethrography, and represents an exceptional approach to reduce the number of children being exposed to ionizing radiation especially during conservative followup.
Journal ArticleDOI

Which continuous US scanning mode is optimal for the detection of vascularity in liver lesions when enhanced with a second generation contrast agent

TL;DR: In this study, FPD performed best, and the non-linear modes, performed continuously (pulse inversion and second HGS), showed no clear advantage.
