Longitudinal Changes in Knee Joint Synovial Vascularity in a Rabbit Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis: Quantification Using Power Doppler Ultrasound and Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound
August 30, 2021 — Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology Abstract We studied a rabbit model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to examine the time course of changes in synovial neovascularization based on quantitative power Doppler ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Twenty-five male New Zealand rabbits were in the ovalbumin-induced arthritis (OIA) group, and 5 were in […]

Contrast mammography plus ultrasound on par with MRI for preop staging
August 5, 2021 — AuntMinnie.com By Amerigo Allegretto A combination of contrast-enhanced mammography with ultrasound performs as well as breast MRI for preoperative staging for breast cancer, according to a Dutch study published August 2 in the European Journal of Radiology. The study findings suggest that an effective “one-stop-shop” imaging strategy is available to clinicians […]
Comparison of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound as Diagnostic Options for Unclear Cystic Renal Lesions: A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
August 3, 2021 — European Journal of Ultrasound Abstract Purpose Correct differentiation between malignant and benign incidentally found cystic renal lesions has critical implications for patient management. In several studies contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) showed higher sensitivity with respect to the accurate characterization of these lesions compared to MRI, but the cost-effectiveness of CEUS has yet […]
Is CEUS the future for imaging complex renal cysts? Are we on the threshold of a change?
August 3, 2021 — European Journal of Ultrasound – Editorial Abstract The paper by Gasser et al in this issue compares the cost-effectiveness of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging as a diagnostic option for indeterminate cystic renal lesions [1]. The cost-effectiveness of CEUS has also been investigated and reported recently by Spiesecke […]
Role of CEUS in Vascular Pathology
August 3, 2021 — European Journal of Ultrasound Abstract In recent years, the implementation of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in clinical practice has opened new horizons in the arterial pathologies research field, since this technique is able to supply new sets of data that can be crucial in patient management. The main applications of CEUS in […]
Contrast enhanced mammography (CEM) versus magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for staging of breast cancer: The pro CEM perspective
August 2, 2021 — European Journal of Radiology Abstract In women with newly diagnosed breast cancer, preoperative staging is required to assess disease extent, enabling us to decide on the most optimal treatment strategy. For locoregional staging, assessment of intramammary tumor extent and presence of axillary and perhaps also internal mammary lymph node metastases is […]
