Contrast-echocardiography for the differential diagnosis of atrial masses

Contrast-echocardiography for the differential diagnosis of atrial masses.

Differential diagnosis of cardiac masses using contrast echocardiographic perfusion imaging.

OBJECTIVES We investigated the usefulness of echocardiographic contrast perfusion imaging in differentiating cardiac masses. BACKGROUND Two-dimensional echocardiography is the primary diagnostic modality for cardiac masses. However, differentiation between the different types of cardiac masses may be difficult at times. We hypothesized that echocardiographic contrast perfusion imaging would d...

Differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic masses with the quantitative analysis of spectral CT imaging: Initial results

Background: To retrospectively evaluate whether quantitative information derived from spectral imaging can improve the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic masses including pancreatic solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasms (SPENs), mucin- producing cysts and pseudocysts. Materials and Methods: From June 2015 to October 2017, 56 patients (22 pseudocysts, 18 mucin-producing cysts and 1...

Contrast echocardiography in the non-invasive diagnosis of giant aneurysm of the right atrial appendage.

A 57 year-old male patient was admitted to our echocardiography laboratory to rule out thrombus in left atrium before electrical cardioversion of atrial fibrillation. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) demonstrated in the bicaval view, the right atrial appendage measured 10 x 5 cm, area: 42 cm(2), volume: 229 mL (Figure, left). A quick injection of 15 cc of echo-contrast fluid (shaken sali...
