background some sonographic positions for detection of abdominal wall hernias needed .in this paper we described the sonographic technique of abdominal wall hernia. methods from june 2013 to july 2016, three hundred seventy four patients referred in our department for evaluation of abdominal wall hernia (median age, 38 years; range 2 - 86 years). one hundred and ninety patients had abdominal he...

Objective: Despite major advances in imaging techniques, correct diagnosis of acute aortic dissection is frequently missed. Although as many as one-third of acute cases of aortic dissection involve the abdominal aorta, emergency physicians rarely suspect this lethal disease in patients presenting with abdominal pain. Transabdominal sonography is typically employed by emergency physicians, but t...

OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of colour power-Doppler transrectal sonography before/after contrast agent in the detection of local recurrence in patients with rising prostate-specific antigen values after radical prostatectomy and to compare with magnetic resonance imaging . MATERIALS AND METHODS 18 patients with rising prostate-specific antigen values after prostatectomy underwent digit...

Aim To describe the incidence of term and preterm neonatal cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) identify perinatal risk factors. Method This was a national capture-recapture calculation-corrected surveillance nested case–control study. Infants born at with magnetic resonance imaging-confirmed CSVT were identified by in all paediatric hospitals Germany (2015–2017). Incidence corrected for under...

Synovial vascularization in metacarpophalangeal joints of a patient with rheumatoid arthritis treated with leukocytapheresis (LCAP) was evaluated by Doppler sonography. After the treatment with LCAP, evaluation with American College of Rheumatology core set showed improvement, and the levels of C-reactive protein and serum amyloid A protein decreased. Power Doppler sonography demonstrated a red...

Sonography is an attractive supplement to mammography in breast cancer screening because it is relatively inexpensive, requires no contrast-medium injection, is well tolerated by patients, and is widely available for equipment as compared with MRI. Sonography has been especially valuable for women with mammographically dense breast because it has consistently been able to detect a substantial n...
