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.

Characterization of focal hepatic lesions with Pulse Inversion Harmonic Imaging (PIHI) using a second generation US contrast agent.
TL;DR: Whether contrast enhanced Pulse Inversion Harmonic Imaging (PIHI) with BR1 could characterize different focal liver lesions was determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous voiding cystourethrography and voiding urosonography reveals utility of sonographic diagnosis of vesicoureteral reflux in children.
TL;DR: To evaluate the diagnostic potential of voiding urosonography compared with fluoroscopic voiding cystourethrography under identical conditions and to evaluate potential reasons for false‐negative VUS results, particularly regarding bladder concentrations of the US contrast agent, Levovist, is evaluated.

Vesicoureteral reflux in young patients: Comparison of voiding color Doppler US with echo enhancement versus voiding cystourethrography for diagnosis or exclusion
Massimo Galia,Massimo Midiri,F. Pennisi,R. Farina,Tommaso Vincenzo Bartolotta,M. De Maria,Roberto Lagalla +6 more
TL;DR: V voiding color Doppler US with echo enhancement is useful for the diagnosis or exclusion of VUR, being as good as VCUG, therefore, it may reduce the number of patients exposed to ionizing radiation.

Contrast-Enhanced Doppler Ultrasound of Renal Artery Stenosis: Prologue to a Promising Future.
TL;DR: State‐of‐the‐art contrast‐enhanced Doppler US seems to have the potential to become a useful screening test for patients at risk from renovascular hypertension and a tool for follow-up of patients who undergo revascularization procedures.
Book ChapterDOI
Contrast Ultrasound Technology
TL;DR: One of the major diagnostic objectives in using an ultrasound contrast agent in the liver is to detect flow in the circulation at a level that is lower than would otherwise be possible.
