Role of conventional ultrasonography and color flow-doppler sonography in predicting malignancy in 'cold' thyroid nodules.
The aim of the present study was to establish the usefulness of conventional thyroid ultrasonography (US) and color flow-doppler (CFD) sonography in the assessment of 'cold' thyroid nodules. One hundred and four consecutive patients with thyroid nodules who were to undergo surgery were examined by US and CFD before thyroidectomy. Conventional US evaluated the presence of a halo sign, hypoechoge...
متن کاملI-45: Color Doppler Sonography of Endometrium in Infertility Patients
Background Endometrial receptivity is one of parameters which determine the reproductive outcome in in vitro fertilization programs. A good blood supply towards the endometrium is usually considered to be an essential requirement for implantation. Blood vessels of the endometrium can be detected by transvaginal color and pulse Doppler sonography. Color Doppler assessment permits better visualiz...
متن کاملCarotid artery disease assessed by color Doppler flow imaging: correlation with standard Doppler sonography and angiography.
Carotid artery disease was assessed in 180 patients by means of color Doppler flow imaging. Color Doppler findings in 360 carotid arteries were compared with the results of standard Doppler sonography, and color Doppler findings in 60 bifurcations were compared with the results of intraarterial angiography. The sensitivity of color Doppler for the detection of carotid disease was 100% when comp...
متن کاملThe value of color flow Doppler ultrasonography of the superior thyroid artery in the surgical management of Graves disease.
HYPOTHESIS The factors affecting blood flow within the hypervascular thyroid gland and the effect of vascularization on the preparation for thyroidectomy as treatment for Graves disease can be documented. DESIGN Blood flow through the superior thyroid arteries of patients with Graves disease, maintained in a euthyroid status, was measured by color flow Doppler ultrasonography. The microvessel...
متن کاملEvaluation of thyrotoxicosis during pregnancy with color flow Doppler sonography.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether color flow Doppler sonography (CFDS) is useful in differentiating Graves vs non-Graves thyrotoxicosis during pregnancy, when nuclear imaging is contraindicated. METHODS Ten pregnant women with thyrotoxicosis were divided into Graves, and non-Graves, disease groups and were evaluated by CFDS for thyroid volume, vascularity, and inferior thyroid artery (ITA) flow ...
