Recently, there have been several major technical advances in the sonographic diagnosis of ovarian cancer in its early stages. These include improved assessment of tumor morphology with transvaginal sonography (TVS), and detection and characterization of tumor neovascularity with transvaginal color Doppler sonography (TV-CDS) and contrast-enhanced transvaginal sonography (CE-TVS). This paper wi...

background: there is a fundamental correlation between follicles and endometrium in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) cycles. objective: to assess the relation between perifollicular perfusion and sub endometrial parameters in doppler ultrasonography and outcome of in icsi cycles. materials and methods: in this prospective deh1ive pilot study 10 patients were enrolled. strict inclusion cr...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Abdominal sonography is regarded as a quick and effective diagnostic tool for acute abdominal pain in emergency medicine. However, final diagnosis is usually based on a combination of various clinical examinations and radiography. The role of sonography in the decision making process at a hospital with advanced imaging capabilities versus a hospital with limited imag...

1695 he central focus of carotid Doppler sonography studies is the detection and characterization of atherosclerotic disease and stenosis. Doppler sonography samples are used primarily to quantify velocity elevations at sites of stenosis. However, more subtle clues to disease are contained in the shape and contour of the Doppler sonography waveform itself. Aberrations of waveform morphology can...

Background: Thrombosis of parametrial veins are rarely diagnosed by transvaginal sonography. The clinical importance vein thrombosis is not known. We present the first fully documented case pelvic varicosities with non-occlusive resulting in subsequent development pain that alleviated resolution thrombus. Case report: a perimenopausal woman underwent sonography for routine check-up. patient su...

abstract background: to compare pregnancy outcomes in women at risk for cervical incompetence after elective versus ultrasound- indicated cerclage. methods: in a prospective randomized tlial, singleton pregnancies with at least one previous spontaneous midtrimester loss or early preterm delivery (between 15 and 32 weeks' gestation) who met clinical crite1ia for the diagnosis of cervical in...

This study is to prospectively evaluate the efficiency of sonography for volvulus diagnosis in neonates with clinically suspected intestinal malrotation.A total of 83 patients with suspected intestinal malrotation who underwent detailed abdominal sonography and upper gastrointestinal contrast study were included. Malrotation was characterized by inversion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA)...
