Contrast-enhanced ultrasound for prostate cancer imaging
• Need for targeted instead of blind biopsies, in order to reduce false negatives and to improve grading and staging • Need for accurate grading, staging and prognosis, in order to a) reduce side effects by enabling active surveillance and treating only relevant cases and b) avoid recurrence as a result of understaging and inappropriate treatment • Need for targeted therapies (focal local treat...
متن کاملUnderstanding coronary artery disease: tomographic imaging with intravascular ultrasound.
In 1856 the pathologist Virchow published his now classic observations on atherothrombosis based on the examination of postmortem tomographic artery sections. The Virchow triad describes three components contributing to the atherothrombotic disease process: the vessel wall, the blood constituents, and blood flow. In vivo coronary imaging techniques became available more than 100 years later wit...
متن کاملAssessment of coronary plaque morphology by contrast-enhanced computed tomographic angiography: comparison with intravascular ultrasound.
BACKGROUND Computed tomographic (CT) angiography provides accurate noninvasive assessment for coronary artery stenosis. The ability of CT angiography to determine plaque morphology remains unclear. METHODS Twelve patients undergoing intravascular ultrasound for clinical indications underwent CT angiography for the evaluation of plaque morphology. Plaque morphology was classified as (1) soft, ...
متن کاملMicroflow imaging of contrast-enhanced ultrasound for evaluation of neovascularization in peripheral lung cancer
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of microflow imaging (MFI) of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for evaluating microvascular architecture of different types of peripheral lung cancer (PLC) and to explore the correlated pathological basis.Ninety-five patients with PLC were enrolled in this study. Two radiologists independently evaluated the microvascular architecture of PLC w...
متن کاملVascular Structure Identification in Intraoperative 3D Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Data
In this paper, a method of vascular structure identification in intraoperative 3D Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) data is presented. Ultrasound imaging is commonly used in brain tumor surgery to investigate in real time the current status of cerebral structures. The use of an ultrasound contrast agent enables to highlight tumor tissue, but also surrounding blood vessels. However, these stru...
