MON-571 The Performance Of An Advanced Ultrasound Technique, Quantitative Ultrasound, Compared To Conventional Ultrasound In The Evaluation Of Thyroid Nodules

Investigating the diagnostic value of tumor markers compared to ultrasound in the diagnosis of ovarian tumors

Aims: Ovarian cancer has the worst prognosis among female genital tract malignancies, but if detected in the early stages, it is one of the most treatable malignancies. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of tumor markers compared to ultrasound in the diagnosis of ovarian tumors. Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional-analytical study, 210 women referred to ...

Role of Elastography in Ultrasound Evaluation of Thyroid Nodules

Background: Ultrasound is the modality of choice for evaluation of thyroid nodules. Elastography plays a complimentary role in characterizing the thyroid nodules. Objectives: This study is undertaken to evaluate the role of Elastography in evaluation and characterization of the thyroid nodules. Materials and methods: Fifty cases of thyroid nodules who underwent ultrasound evaluation during Marc...

Thyroid ultrasound: beyond the diagnosis of thyroid nodules.

Superb microvascular imaging (SMI) compared with conventional ultrasound for evaluating thyroid nodules

BACKGROUND Superb microvascular imaging (SMI) for depiction of microvascular flow in thyroid nodules was compared with color/power Doppler imaging (CDI/PDI) and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS). In addition, the diagnostic performance of conventional ultrasound combined with SMI for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules was evaluated. METHODS Preoperative conventional u...
