Medientyp: E-Artikel Titel: Endocavitary contrast‐enhanced ultrasound: A technique whose time has come? Beteiligte: Müller, Thomas; Blank, Wolfgang; Leitlein, Jens; Kubicka, Stefan; Heinzmann, Alexander Erschienen: Wiley, 2015 Erschienen in: Journal of Clinical Ultrasound Sprache: Englisch DOI: 10.1002/jcu.22250 ISSN: 0091-2751; 1097-0096 Schlagwörter: Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and imaging Entstehung: Anmerkungen: Beschreibung: <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title><jats:p>Endocavitary use of contrast agents in sonography (US) is a relatively new method in diagnostic imaging, competing against gray‐scale US, fluoroscopy, and endoscopy. This article describes established indications, demonstrates the techniques of evolving applications, and discusses their potential benefits. These benefits include the ability to obtain precise information about the placement of drains and the extent of fluid collections, and to accurately identify the location and features of strictures in various organs, and those of complications of fluid collections or abscesses, without resorting to ionizing radiation. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. <jats:italic>J Clin Ultrasound</jats:italic>, <jats:bold>43</jats:bold>:71–80, 2015</jats:p>
