BACKGROUND The aim of this prospective, multicenter study was to define the accuracy of lung ultrasound (LUS) in the diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). METHODS Three hundred sixty-two patients with suspected CAP were enrolled in 14 European centers. At baseline, history, clinical examination, laboratory testing, and LUS were performed as well as the reference test, which was a r...
We report two cases of women with a previous cesarean performed before active labor at 29 weeks of gestation who underwent sonographic measurement of the lower uterine segment (LUS) at 36 weeks' gestation in their subsequent pregnancy. In both cases, uterine scar defect was detected on the upper part of the LUS, at ∼9 to 11 cm from the cervical os, and was only visualized by the transabdominal ...
Endometrial cancer arises from the uterine body and fundus in many cases, but can also originate from the lower region of the uterine body through the upper region of the cervix. Such tumors are referred to as carcinoma of the lower uterine segment (LUS) or isthmus, and account for 3-6.3% of all cases of endometrial cancer. This relatively low incidence has permitted performance of only small-s...
OBJECTIVES Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a frequent extra-articular manifestation of RA associated with increased mortality. High-resolution CT (HRCT) is used for diagnosis and follow-up, but its accuracy is counterbalanced by high costs and radiological risk. In the presence of ILD, lung US (LUS) detects vertical artefacts called B-lines. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the...
BACKGROUND Lung ultrasonography (LUS) has emerged as a noninvasive tool for the differential diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. However, its use for the diagnosis of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) still raises some concerns. We tested the hypothesis that an integrated approach implementing LUS with clinical assessment would have higher diagnostic accuracy than a standard workup in diffe...
BACKGROUND The role of staging laparoscopy (SL) with laparoscopic ultrasound (LUS) in patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) remains controversial. METHODS A meta-analysis of all studies (from 1998 to the present) on the effect of SL/LUS in patients with potentially resectable CRLM with respect to alteration in surgical management was performed. RESULTS Twelve studies s...
Uterine carcinoma of the lower uterine segment (LUS) is a rare tumor that accounts for 3-3.5% of cases of uterine malignant cancer. The tumor arises from the lower region of the uterine body through the upper region of the cervix. The present study reported a case of clear cell carcinoma that originated from the LUS. A 50-year-old woman visited a local hospital due to irregular vaginal bleeding...
Intra-operative contact ultrasound is a sensitive method of detecting liver tumours. The aim of this study was to compare the sensitivity of open contact ultrasound (OUS) of the liver with laparoscopic contact ultrasound (LUS). Hypoechoic "lesions" were created in 5 fresh pig livers by inserting 28 grapes via small incisions in the inferior surface. The size (range 8-25 mm) and location of each...
Background: Guidelines do not currently recommend the use of lung ultrasound (LUS) as an alternative to chest X-ray (CXR) or chest computerized tomography (CT) scan for the diagnosis of pneumonia. We conducted a meta-analysis to summarize existing evidence of the diagnostic accuracy of LUS for pneumonia in adults. Methods: We conducted a systematic search of published studies comparing the diag...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the accuracy of antenatal sonographic measurement of lower uterine segment (LUS) thickness in the prediction of risk of uterine rupture during a trial of labor (TOL) in women with a previous Cesarean section (CS). METHODS PubMed and EMBASE were searched to identify articles published on the subject of sonographic LUS measurement and occurrence of a uterine defect after d...
