Performance of novel tissue harmonic echo imaging using endoscopic ultrasound for pancreatic diseases.
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Recently, tissue harmonic echo (THE) imaging has advanced with the development of a new endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) monitor/processing unit. With this new technology, penetration (THE-P) and resolution (THE-R) images can be obtained. The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of this novel THE imaging using a new processing unit for pancreatic diseases. ...
متن کاملInterventional endoscopic ultrasound in pancreatic diseases.
During the last 15 years, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has become an important imaging procedure for diagnosis and management of pancreatic diseases. The clinical interest of EUS is now enhanced by interventional procedures. Noteworthy, fine-needle aspiration biopsy is one of the most important contributions of EUS, in particular for the investigation of patients with pancreatic cancer and cysti...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound imaging of pancreatic duct ascariasis.
Ascaris lumbricoides infestation is endemic in tropical countries. Most infections by A. lumbricoides are asymptomatic, but they can produce a wide spectrum of manifestations including hepatobiliary and pancreatic complications. Pancreatic ascariasis is a rare entity. In a study of 500 patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease due to A. lumbricoides infection, only seven had pancreatic...
متن کاملTissue harmonic synthetic aperture ultrasound imaging.
Synthetic aperture sequential beamforming (SASB) and tissue harmonic imaging (THI) are combined to improve the image quality of medical ultrasound imaging. The technique is evaluated in a comparative study against dynamic receive focusing (DRF). The objective is to investigate if SASB combined with THI improves the image quality compared to DRF-THI. The major benefit of SASB is a reduced bandwi...
متن کاملContrast-Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasonography in Pancreatic Diseases
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is the most sensitive imaging method for diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. However, it still has limits in the differentiation between pancreatic cancers and inflammatory tumor-like masses. A novel technology, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS), has been developed recently. It can visualize both parenchymal perfusion and microvasculature in pancreas without D...
