introduction: traumatic eye injuries (tei) involved about 3% of cases referred to the emergency departments of developing countries. lens dislocation is one of the critical cases of ophthalmic emergencies. the present study was aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in detection of traumatic lens dislocation. methods: in this cross-sectional study the findings of ultrasono...

  Abstract   Background: Hydronephrosis is the most common congenital condition that is detected   by prenatal ultrasonography. Moreover, the widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography   results in an increased recognition of fetal hydronephrosis. Prenatal hydronephrosis   is diagnosed at an incidence of 1:100 to 1:500 by ultrasonographic studies. The presence of hydronephrosis is not synonymou...

Usefulness of transcranial Doppler-derived cerebral hemodynamic parameters in the noninvasive assessment of intracranial pressure. Author Wakerley BR1, Kusuma Y, Yeo LL, Liang S, Kumar K, Sharma AK, Sharma VK. Content/Summary Abstract BACKGROUND: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography is a noninvasive bedside tool that can evaluate cerebral blood flow hemodynamics in major intracranial arte...

An enormous technological improvement in Ultrasonography devices has occurred during last decade, providing excellent soft-tissue contrast and high spatial resolution images. Nowadays, musculoskeletal ultrasonography is going to be a stethoscope in the hand of orthopedic surgeons for the diagnosis of many musculoskeletal pathologies, as well as an accurate guide for therapeutic interventions. T...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Diagnostic test accuracy studies for ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration and ultrasonography-guided core needle biopsy have shown inconclusive results due to their heterogenous study designs. Our aim was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration versus ultrasonography-guided core needle biopsy for detecting malignant tum...

The significance of strain gauge plethysmography and photoplethysmography in the diagnostics hemodynamic disturbance primary varicose veins is discussed. Both methods have ability to measure volume changes induced by calf pump activity quantify pre-treatment disorders, immediate post-treatment improvement, as well deterioration occurring during follow up. most frequently used parameters are ref...

Background: Thyroid swelling can be benign or malignant. It is evaluated by clinical examination, Ultrasonography (USG) and Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC). This study was conducted with the aim of comparing discrepancy diagnosis USG, considering FNAC as gold standard. 
 Methods: A prospective observational thyroid swellings convenient sampling carried out over a year (20 October 20...

introduction: despite radiography being the gold standard in evaluation of orthopedic injuries, using bedside ultrasonography has several potential supremacies such as avoiding exposure to ionizing radiation, availability in pre-hospital settings, being extensively accessible, and ability to be used on the bedside. the aim of the present study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasono...

Ultrasonography is a standard, noninvasive modality used to evaluate patients with gastrointestinal diseases. This study assessed the usefulness of ultrasonography in the detection of small bowel tumors. This study enrolled 558 consecutive patients (295 males, 263 females; mean age 71.1 years) who underwent ultrasonography before capsule endoscopy and/or balloon-assisted endoscopy. Ultrasonogra...
