A variety of neoplasms can develop in each fetal organ. Most fetal neoplasms can be detected by careful prenatal ultrasonographic examination. Some neoplasms show specific ultrasonographic findings suggesting the differential diagnosis, but others do not. Knowledge of the presence of a neoplasm in the fetus may alter the prenatal management of a pregnancy and the mode of delivery, and facilitat...

Ultrasonography has recently been used for evaluation of various conditions in Orthopaedics. Ultrasonographic examination is a noninvasive screening test especially for soft tissue masses. Ultrasonography is also a useful and essential diagnostic tool in cardiovascular disorders because real-time images of heart and vessels can be obtained. However, there have been few reports which describe ul...

Stating the contribution of Doppler ultrasound examination (DU) of prostatic vascularisation towards timely diagnosing prostate cancer. 87 patients with bioptically proven prostate cancer and 10 healthy young men of control group were examined by transrectal ultrasound in B mode, colour flow mapping (CFM) and Doppler frequency analysis. (DFA) The distribution of vessels in prostate is not speci...

A systematic review to identify risk factors for prostate biopsy-related infection, preventative strategies, and optimal management of infectious complications was conducted. Significant risk factors for postbiopsy infection include urogenital infection, antibiotic use, international travel, hospital exposure, bacteriuria, previous transrectal biopsy, and resistance of fecal flora to antibiotic...

abstract primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast is a very rare malignant tumor. there are not many cases reported in the english literature since it was first documented in 1983. reports on the imaging features, in particular the ultrasonographic features of this rare tumor are scarce. herein, we report a case of aggressive primary infiltrating neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast, ma...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the contribution of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of neurilemmoma and to establish if a round or round-like shape adds useful information for ultrasonographic diagnosis. METHODS Archives of ultrasound findings in 203 patients (127 males and 76 females, aged 14 -72 years old, mean 32.1 +/- 25.8) with limb mass were reviewed. The maximal and minimal diameter of the lesi...

OBJECTIVE To determine ultrasonographic features and reference values of the anatomy of the abdomen of common rats (Rattus norvegicus). ANIMALS 20 adult male and 20 adult female rats. PROCEDURES A complete abdominal ultrasonographic examination was performed with the rats sedated. The cadavers of 4 rats were used for anatomic comparisons. Two cadavers were dissected and 2 cadavers were froz...
