Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy Using Surgical Sonography
Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy is the procedure of choice for primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma. Localization of the offending adenoma in minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) has been described in the literature aided by isotope, telescope or ultrasound guidance. We present a prospective study of two techniques based on surgeon experience. Thirty patients diagno...
متن کاملNon-invasive Quantification of Fatty Liver Disease
As suggested by its name, NAFLD is caused by the accumulation of fat in liver cells (Figure 1). Clinically, the abnormal retention of fat in liver cells is termed steatosis. NASH, an advanced form of NAFLD, occurs when the liver becomes inflamed and damaged secondary to fat buildup. The damage caused by NASH is similar to that caused by long-term, heavy alcohol consumption, yet occurs in people...
متن کاملValue of M-mode echocardiography for non-invasive diagnosis of Ebstein's anomaly.
M-mode echocardiographic studies were performed in 11 patients, most of them adults, with Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve, proven by cardiac catheterisation. Simultaneous recordings of the tricuspid and mitral valves were obtained in all cases, the transducer position being outside the left midclavicular line in seven patients. Tricuspid valve closure followed mitral valve closure in a...
متن کاملRestrictive cardiomyopathy and constrictive pericarditis: non-invasive distinction by digitised M mode echocardiography.
It is difficult to distinguish between restrictive cardiomyopathy and constrictive pericarditis on the basis of clinical findings and simple investigation. Cardiac catheterisation has been the reference standard for diagnosis but even this does not always permit an accurate distinction. A Summagraphics digitiser and Prime 750 computer system were used to digitise the echocardiograms of 15 patie...
متن کاملNon-invasive quantification of aortic regurgitation by Doppler echocardiography.
This study was undertaken to assess the contribution of Doppler echocardiography to the quantification of aortic valve regurgitation. Ultrasound examination was performed by recording aortic arch blood flow from the suprasternal notch. A non-invasive index of valve regurgitation was obtained by calculating the ratio between the maximal amplitude of forward flow during systole and the amplitude ...
