Ultrasound ReviewUltrasoundThe relevance of placental location at 20–23 gestational weeks for prediction of placenta previa at delivery: evaluation of 8,650 cases(Ultrasound Review) According to obstetricians from the Free University of Berlin, Germany, placenta previa can be predicted by assessing placental position with ultrasound at 20–23 weeks gestation when the anatomy is surveyed. The findings were presented in the June issue of the Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.July 26, 2001UltrasoundImportance of evaluating organ parenchyma during screening abdominal ultrasonography after blunt trauma(Ultrasound Review) A recent study evaluated the importance of assessing organ parenchyma during ultrasound screening after blunt abdominal trauma. The findings were published in the June issue of the Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine.July 23, 2001UltrasoundUrachal remnants in asymptomatic children: gray-scale and color Doppler sonographic findings(Ultrasound Review) Turkish radiologists from Ege University School of Medicine studied many children to investigate how often urachal remnants (UR) were demonstrated on high frequency ultrasound imaging. Their results were published in the May issue of the Journal of Clinical Ultrasound.July 5, 2001UltrasoundTransvaginal color Doppler assessment of venous flow in adnexal masses(Ultrasound Review) The objective of research from the University of Navarra was to analyze the usefulness of transvaginal color Doppler in the assessment of venous flow in adnexal masses. To date, Doppler ultrasound research of adnexal masses has concentrated on peak systolic velocities and resistive indices in assessing the nature of tumors.July 3, 2001UltrasoundInterobserver variability in aortoiliac and femoropopliteal duplex scanning(Ultrasound Review) The Journal of Vascular Surgery recently published an article regarding duplex ultrasound of aortoiliac and femoropoliteal arteries. The purpose of the March study was to determine the interobserver variability of aortoiliac and femoropopliteal duplex scanning for patients with peripheral arterial atherosclerosis.June 24, 2001UltrasoundInterobserver variability in aortoiliac and femoropopliteal duplex scanning(Ultrasound Review) The Journal of Vascular Surgery recently published an article regarding duplex ultrasound of aortoiliac and femoropoliteal arteries. The purpose of the March study was to determine the interobserver variability of aortoiliac and femoropopliteal duplex scanning for patients with peripheral arterial atherosclerosis.June 20, 2001UltrasoundNormal and acutely torn posterior cruciate ligament of the knee at US evaluation: preliminary experience(Ultrasound Review) According to researchers from the Yeungnam University in Korea, ultrasound may be useful as a screening examination for patients suspected of having posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury.June 19, 2001CTComparative assessment of CT and sonographic techniques for appendiceal imaging(Ultrasound Review) Both CT and ultrasound imaging are widely used in the diagnosis of appendicitis with a resultant lowering in the clinically negative appendectomy rate. In order to determine which technique was superior, radiologists at Hershey Medical Center in Pennsylvania conducted a comparative assessment of various CT techniques and graded compression ultrasound.June 11, 2001UltrasoundPitfalls in the sonographic diagnosis of juxtadiaphragmatic pulmonary sequestrations(Ultrasound Review)Can ultrasound alone be used for identification of juxtadiaphragmatic lesions with sufficient diagnostic accuracy?June 10, 2001UltrasoundAnalysis of color Doppler signal intensity variation after Levovist injection: A new approach to the diagnosis of thyroid nodules(Ultrasound Review) Analyzing the color Doppler signal intensity variation after Levovist injection might provide useful information to differentiate benign from malignant thyroid nodules, according to results from a prospective study by researchers in Naples, Italy.June 5, 2001Previous PagePage 10 of 13Next PageTop StoriesCTRevealed: The cause of CT safety incident in BelgiumA single bottle of contaminated contrast agent was the cause of eight patients' illness after undergoing CT in Belgium.AIAgentic AI as the new infrastructure for interoperabilityWomens ImagingAI interpretation leads to high NPV, recall rates in breast imagingPractice ManagementHow does practice consolidation affect radiology services pricing?Sponsor Content"Join Us"
