Can ultrasound elastography identify mass-like focal fatty change (FFC) from liver mass?
Focal fatty change (FFC) may mimic liver mass on conventional B-mode ultrasound. Clinical differentiation of mass-like FFC and liver mass is important due to different clinical interventions. Contrast-enhanced imaging (CEI) or biopsy is reliable for this differentiation, but is expensive and invasive. This study aimed to explore utilities of ultrasound elastography for this differentiation.This...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration diagnosis of a focal fatty mass in the pancreas.
Focal fatty masses of the pancreas, which include focal fatty infiltration, lipoma, and liposarcoma, are rare entities [1]. A well-differentiated lipogenic liposarcoma can mimic a benign lesion on radiologic examination and only cytohistology can resolve the doubt [2]. A 60-year-old woman was referred to our department because of an incidental ultrasound diagnosis of a lesion in the head of the...
متن کاملcorrelation of body mass index and serum parameters with ultrasonographic grade of fatty change in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
background non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is a common liver disease in the western population and expanding disease in the world. pathological changes in fatty liver are like alcohol liver damage, which can lead to end-stage liver disease. the prevalence of nafld in obese or overweight people is higher than general population, and it seems that people with high body mass index (bmi) ...
متن کاملFatty Liver Automatic Diagnosis from Ultrasound Images
In this paper an automatic classification algorithm is proposed for the diagnosis of the liver steatosis, also known as, fatty liver, from ultrasound images. The features, automatically extracted from the ultrasound images used by the classifier, are basically the ones used by the physicians in the diagnosis of the disease based on visual inspection of the ultrasound images. The main novelty of...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration can target right liver mass
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) has been established as a safe and accurate method for diagnosing and staging intra-abdominal mass. However, few studies investigated its feasibility, efficacy, and safety for targeting liver mass. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of EUS-FNA in patients with liver masses including the right lobe. PATIE...
