Ultrasound is screening method of choice for detecting acquired cystic disease of the kidney and possible malignant alterations of the kidneys.

Ultrasound transducer can be disinfected only with chemical disinfectants. To lower the risk for transmission of infection, transducers are additionally covered by probe covers.

Ultrasound diagnostics of breast is a complementary techique to clinical examination of women under 35 in whom symptoms of a breast disease have been observed, as well as to nonconclusive mammograms.

Ultrasound scans were performed on each of 3698 consecutive term newborns delivered throughout 24 months ending December 31, 1994. We have two groups: the first one consisted of 12 newborns with ventriculomegaly and the second group consisted of 24 newborns without ventriculomegaly.

Ultrasound scanners

Ultrasound was first used with pregnant women in the late fifties, and we have since been witnesses to its dramatic development and rapid spread to all segments of care during pregnancy.

Ultrasound contrast medium.

Ultrasound contrast medium, ATC Code:

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of certain areas inside the body.

Ultrasound imaging must be performed during injection of OPTISON as optimal contrast effect is obtained immediately after administration.

Basic principles of Doppler ultrasound

Color Doppler ultrasound investigation of ovarian tumors

The tumor is most frequently found on ultrasound examination.

The physical principles of Doppler ultrasound apparatus and the parameters involved in the ultrasound examination are presented.

Modern ultrasound classification of atherosclerotic plaques in the carotid arteries

During the years color Doppler ultrasound, which enables us to study tissue vascularization, has been added to the already established gray scale ultrasound diagnostics.

history, clinical investigation, mammography, ultrasound, needle and excision biopsy.

The role of carotid artery duplex ultrasound scanning in early detection of atherosclerosis

Peripheral arterial occlusive disease was diagnosed in the lower extramities by Doppler a ultrasound.

A lot of attention is put on possibility of transmission of infection by vaginal ultrasound transducer.

Some physical and technical characteristics of the most commonly used modem ultrasound techniques, such as the duplex Doppler technique and colour Doppler flow mapping are described, as well as the characteristic features of various ultrasound transducers used in combination with the Doppler ultrasound apparatus.

Doppler ultrasound examination is employed for estimating the presence, quality and quantity of blood flow.

We prove them by arteriography, ultrasound examination of the lower abdomen, or by the computer tomography.

Vaginal ultrasound transducer and vaginal speculum are instruments with medium-risk for transmission of infection.

Guidelines for cleaning and preparing endocavitary ultrasound transducers between patients are mentioned in the article.

Serum CA 125 assay and ultrasound examination seem to be the most promising methods for early diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma.

The role of color Doppler ultrasound in preoperative determination of the nature of ovarian tumors is still not exactly determined.

Mammography and ultrasound are dominant modalities in evaluating patient suspected of breast cancer around the world and our country.

at least one examination with ultrasound during pregnancy, Apgar score -6 at 1st minute and -7 at 5th minutes, normal clinical status.

Endoscopic ultrasound examination will improve the accuracy of clinical assessment and make local treatment possible in selected patients.

The diagnosis is based on clinical tests and noninvasive imaging techniques, the most widely used being ultrasound and the most useful MRI.

The development of echo-enhanding agents significantly improved the detection of the movement of fluid within the urinary tract by ultrasound (US).

In a prospective study we tried to determine the accuracy of color Doppler ultrasound in distinuishing between benign, malignant and ovarian pseudotumors.

Since the introduction of non-invasive diagnostic methods such as ultrasound and-or computed tomography simple renal cysts are frequent incidental finding.

The author of this article tries refreshens the role of radiologist and the significance of radiologic diagnostics, ultrasound and other interventions in the breast.

Breast sonography should be carried out by a top-quality diagnostic equipement with a high-frequency (of at least 7.5 Mhz) ultrasound probe having a large field of view.

With regard to benign ultrasound and mammographic appearance of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast, aspiration cytology should be performed in each patients with breast lump.

While the distinction between benign and malignant changes is particulay important, the ultrasound examination allows more or less only an approximate avaluation of this distiction.

Transrectal ultrasound-guided prostatic biopsy was performed in patients with the digital rectal examination suggestive of prostate cancer or a serum PSA level equal to or higher than 4 ng/ml.

Using ultrasound we determined thickness of the intima and media of the carotid arteries, and the ability of brachial arteries to dilate during hyperemia. The measurements were done before and after smoking.

A complete history, careful physical examination of the whole patient, basic laboratory tests, chest x-ray and ultrasound abdominal examination are sufficient to obtain the diagnosis in majority of the cases.

The paper describes a screening method using ultrasound measurements of fetal nuchal translucency, and new laboratory tests, likely to become useful tools of prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome in the future.

Larger tumors, which are characteristic of advanced stages of the disease, can be discovered on gynaecological examination. ultrasound is an indispensable tool for determining the nature of the tumor. Further data on the malignancy are provided by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

In spite of all the previous treatment and the patient's well feeling two years after surgical intervention a recidive of an echinococcal cyt was found on the primary site with follow up ultrasound (UZ) and computed tomography (CT). Because of unsuitable anatomic position and abundant bleeding it had been impossible to extirpate the pericyst totally during primary surgical intervention.
