Focal Hepatic Lesions: Evaluation with Contrast-Enhanced Gray-Scale Harmonic US
OBJECTIVE To determine the findings of various focal hepatic lesions at contrast-enhanced gray-scale ultrasound (US) using a coded harmonic angio (CHA) technique and emphasizing lesion characterization. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study involved 95 patients with 105 focal hepatic lesions, namely 51 hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs), 22 metastases, 22 hemangiomas, four cases of focal nodular hype...
متن کاملEffects of Gray-Scale Ultrasonography Immediate Post-Contrast on Characterization of Focal Liver Lesions
This study compared the imaging features of conventional gray scale ultrasound (US) before and after contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for focal liver lesions and 22 evaluated the role of US post-CEUS in characterizing liver lesions. 126 patients with 158 focal liver lesions underwent CEUS and US post-CEUS examination and entered this study. There were 74 hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), 43 h...
متن کاملHepatic angiomyolipoma: contrast patterns with SonoVue-enhanced real-time gray-scale ultrasonography.
This study was conducted to retrospectively evaluate the pattern of contrast enhancement with SonoVue on gray-scale ultrasonography of hepatic angiomyolipoma (HAML). Imaging features of 33 pathologically proven HAML lesions in 33 patients who underwent baseline ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) were assessed retrospectively. All lesions were enhanced in the arterial phase ...
متن کاملContrast enhanced ultrasound for the characterization of focal liver lesions.
AIM to present the practice of two experienced centres concerning the use of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the characterization of focal liver lesions (FLL). MATERIAL AND METHOD A prospective, bicentric study, between 09.2009-09.2010 was undertaken and 729 FLL (506-Center A, 223-Center B) were evaluated. A CEUS examination was considered conclusive, if the FLL had a typical enhanceme...
متن کاملCharacterization of nontraumatic focal splenic lesions using contrast-enhanced sonography.
PURPOSE To compare contrast-enhanced sonography (CEUS) with contrast-enhanced CT in the assessment of nontraumatic focal lesions of the spleen. METHODS CEUS and CT findings in 22 patients with fever of unknown origin and ultrasound-detected splenic focal lesions were analyzed retrospectively. CEUS was performed using an ultrasound unit equipped with a 3.6-MHz probe and contrast-specific softw...
