conclusions both ua and mca doppler tests were associated with some neonatal outcomes. however, sensitivity of both ua and mca assessments was low in the prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes. by the comparison of these two methods, we found that ua doppler assessment is a better predictor of neonatal outcomes. results based on the findings, poor outcomes were detected in 48 women. nearly 17....

BACKGROUND Doppler ultrasonography is an important tool for evaluating hepatic portal hemodynamics. However, no study in dogs of different body weights, in the range encountered in routine clinical veterinary practice, has been reported. It can be difficult to obtain an ideal insonation angle when evaluating the main portal vein, so evaluation of the right portal vein branch has been described ...

OBJECTIVES To examine the cost-effectiveness of Doppler ultrasonography in high-risk pregnancies. METHODS An analysis was made of the cost-effectiveness of Doppler ultrasonography in high-risk pregnancies in relation to different organizational models. National costs of Doppler ultrasonography for singleton pregnancies with intrauterine growth retardation were estimated for three models. The ...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the agreement between Doppler ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging as well as the interobserver reproducibility of both methods in the measurement of portal blood flow in schistosomal patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional, observational, self-paired study evaluated 21 patients with schistosomiasis mansoni submitted to measurement of portal blood flo...

OBJECTIVE to estimate and visualise the efficacy of treatment with etanercept (Enbrel) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using colour Doppler and spectral Doppler ultrasonography to determine the possible changes in synovial perfusion during a one year observation period. METHODS Eleven patients from the European multicentre trial of the efficacy and safety of etanercept were include...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation among intratumoral blood flow as assessed by color Doppler ultrasonography, clinicopathological findings and the Nottingham Prognostic Index (NPI). METHODS Twenty-seven patients with breast cancer were examined. All patients received surgical treatment. Color Doppler ultrasonography was performed prior to surgery to detect a...

background: this study aimed to compare the percentage of detection of periarthritis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis using clinical examination and ultrasound methods. materials and methods: this study is a cross?sectional study which was conducted in al?zahra hospital (isfahan, iran) during 2014–2015. in our study, ninety patients were selected based on the american college of rheumatolo...

There is little information available on methods to estimate fetal age of hair sheep. The objective of this study was to determine whether crown-rump length (CRL) and/or fetal heart rate (FHR) could be used to predict fetal age in hair sheep using transrectal B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography. St Croix White, Barbados Blackbelly and Dorper X St. Croix White ewes (n = 54) were scanned weekly be...

This study compared sensitivity and specificity of multidetector-row computed tomography and duplex Doppler ultrasonography in detecting atherosclerotic carotid plaques complicated with intraplaque hemorrhage. Carotid plaques from 50 patients operated for carotid artery stenosis were analyzed. Carotid endarterectomy was performed within one week of diagnostic evaluation. Results of multidetecto...

Objective: Our objective was to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of YouTube videos about penile doppler ultrasonography (PDU), a diagnostic tool for erectile dysfunction. Material Methods: Videos on were searched using term “Penile Doppler Ultrasonography”. The most related 48 included in study. For each video, uploader type (physician, patient, or YouTuber), target group (physicians non-p...
