Hepatic 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 ultrasonography of the liver using SonoVue
This review focuses on the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) with SonoVue (Bracco Imaging) for the diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs), guidance during ablative treatment, and follow-up of liver tumors. Multicenter trials have shown that the performance of CEUS for the characterization of FLLs is similar to that of contrast-enhanced computed tomography or contrast-enhanced mag...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced ultrasonography with a new contrast agent (SonoVue®) for characterization of renal tumors
Due to the increased use of imaging techniques such as ultrasound and computed tomography, an increasing number of renal tumors are being diagnosed incidentally. These tumors are often smaller and in an earlier stage, and it is difficult to distinguish benign from malignant tumors. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography (CEUS) in the characteriz...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced ultrasonography with SonoVue after infliximab therapy in Crohn's disease.
The introduction of biological treatments like monoclonal anti TNF-a antibodies (infliximab), is changing the clinical history of Crohn's disease (CD). The effects of these therapies are monitored emplying clinical indexes of active disease, laboratory parameters, endoscopy and histology, and also with imaging techniques. A new ultrasound contrast agent, SonoVue (Bracco SpA, Milano, Italy), is ...
متن کاملImaging Diagnosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Recent Advances of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography with SonoVue®.
Due to the ability to detect the typical contrast-imaging pattern for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), that is hyperenhancement in the arterial phase and hypoenhancement in the late phase on a cirrhotic background, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) was included in the American diagnostic algorithm for HCC in 2005. However, its role has been questioned because of the possibility of misdiag...
