better visualization of vermiform appendix with tissue harmonic imaging compared to conventional sonography
conclusions thi visualizes appendix better than conventional us. it is a simple and time saving method that may eliminate further diagnostic imaging, and it may decrease negative appendectomy rates and related complications. patients and methods the study was performed on 185 patients who applied for routine us examinations in whom clinical findings of appendicitis were detected in 25. we searc...
متن کاملBetter Visualization of Vermiform Appendix With Tissue Harmonic Imaging Compared to Conventional Sonography
BACKGROUND Surgery of appendicitis carries 7-11% negative appendectomy rates. Sonographically visualized normal appendix precludes unnecessary computed tomography (CT) examination and may reduce negative appendectomy rates. Tissue harmonic imaging (THI) has been reported to improve the overall image quality. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess whether THI is more successful than conventional ultraso...
متن کاملTissue harmonic imaging, frequency compound imaging, and conventional imaging: use and benefit in breast sonography.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate different sonographic settings (tissue harmonic, frequency compounding, and conventional imaging) and to determine which setting optimizes breast lesion detection and lesion characterization. METHODS Four hundred thirteen consecutive breast lesions (249 benign and 164 malignant) were evaluated by sonography using 4 different modes (conventio...
متن کاملEvaluation of bifid median nerve with sonography and MR imaging.
Bifid median nerve is an anatomic variation that may be associated with carpal tunnel syndrome. It is important for the surgeon to be aware of the existence of this condition preoperatively in order to plan the carpal tunnel release. We report the correlation between ultrasonographic findings and magnetic resonance imaging results in six patients with bifid median nerve, selected from a populat...
متن کاملThyroid Nodules Evaluation with Sonography
Thyroid nodules are common findings in clinical practice and occur in more than 50% of adult population; nevertheless, only 7% of thyroid nodules are malignant. The aim of this study were to assess the value of ultrasound [US] in the detection of nodules, to characterize the thyroid nodules patterns by ultrasound and to differentiate between benign and malignant nodules. A total of 120 patients...
