background: with the technical development, ultrasound tends to overpass its limits and to become the main investigation tool even for situations when it was traditionally considered second best. it is more convenient both for patient and doctor, less expensive and has real diagnostic value. objective: the present paper, and its graphic back-up, are intended as a visual testimony of the fact th...

Today’s ultrasound imaging systems produce better images and display more information than it was possible to display 30 years ago. Similarly, performance criteria for ultrasound imaging systems and the tools used to make these measurements have evolved, and have become more complex. This presentation will informally discuss a few examples of the evolution of ultrasound imaging systems and perf...

adenomyosis is an idiopathic and benign disease in which ectopic endometrial glands embedded deeply in myometrial smooth muscle with the compensatory hypertrophy of the myometrium surrounding the ectopic endometrium (1, 2). there is a correlation between depth of the infiltration and initial too high stage of adenomyosis. lesions may characterize as a diffuse or focal lesions. the highest preva...

Background: Diagnostic ultrasound has been used to detect human disease especially fetus abnormalities in recent decades. Although the harmful effects of diagnostic ultrasound on human have not been established so far, several researchers showed it has had bioeffects in cell lines and in experimental animals. Three-dimensional (3D), four-dimensional (4D), and color Doppler sonography are new te...

Objective: to compare the estimated thyroid volume, as determined by two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) ultrasonography, with real volume. Design: Descriptive Study Animals: A total of 7 mixed breed dogs Procedures: On 2D ultrasound, the thyroid volume is estimated by the ellipsoid equation and on 3D ultrasound; it is estimated by outlining the boundaries of the thyroid lobe in ...

Three-dimensional ultrasound is an established diagnostic imaging technique in many specialties. However, in neonates, infants and children three-dimensional ultrasound still is underutilized, partially due to time constraints for post-processing and restricted availability, of devices as well as dedicated pediatric transducers. Also reimbursement issues still need to be addressed. This editori...
