interesting i dont know so much about that but would ne interesting its will be possible influence the transducer pressure
Thank for raising this immensely important issue.There is a joke prevalent in our area that US should be called oltasonogram ( in Bengali ;false/ wrong sonography). Some reports are so laughing stock, some so vague & mediocre ,some operators having…
Thanks Dr Gilani .
I have no fault & genius for the complemnts. Pl do not forget the internet is a virtual page where one can show himself off as a greater scientist than Einstein, a bigger composer than Mozart. There is a saying of Prophet Mohammad…
I think Lisa M Allen replied rightly as well as I am happy to cut short the time to asses the biophysical profile br Prof Gilani.Now question is that is it always need to comment for all cases using this five criteria?
This community consists of professionals interested in all aspects of ob ultrasound. Discussions include administrative issues such as coding, practice administration, and news about legislation concerning obstetric ultrasound.
Thank u Dr. N Safi for raising this question. I think in practice life this is not a easy question, rather it is very difficult to comment regarding the hepatomegaly in case of children that what is the measurment for child.
Thank u Prof. Gillani for ur valuable comment on Hepatomegaly, but what will be the measurment for hepatomegaly in case of children 6-12 yrs.
The General & Abdominal Ultrasound Community represents professionals that are involved in general abdominal imaging, including areas of the abdomen and retroperitoneum, as well as superficial parts of the body.
Thanks Prof Jilani.This is a very new & near revolutionary concept & I have to grasp it. As Prof Einstein has said " Lifes is like riding a bicycle where to keep your balance you have to move all the time .
This new AIUM community consists of physicians and basic scientists interested in advancing the efficiency and awareness of ultrasound applications for therapeutic benefit.
Syed,
Do you mean the EFAST exam?
No, I just adjust it to optimize for low flow vessels, with a low PRF and low gain to reduce artifacts. I usually use power doppler or dynamic flow (Toshiba Xario, similar to B-flow)
the idea of 'Color Doppler mapping - parathyroid usually has many peripheral vessels instead of only one in the hilum.' is apealing.Have you experienced alaising i mean color alaising of any help in this differentiation,try that.
Professionals interested in ultrasound imaging of the thyroid and parathyroid glands will discuss related topics including the ultrasound exam, thyroid cancer staging, and guided biopsies and interventional procedures.
Thank you for the contribution!
i have some notes from that talk-i can write that if its new
Dear All; Do you have any detailed idea or protocols on FAST PLUS.I attended a talk on it during euroson in edinbrough scottalnd in december 2009.If we dont have a precise guideline we can start disscussion on it.
The Emergency & Critical Care Ultrasound Community includes individuals involved with the use of ultrasound in the analysis of emergency care patients. Disciplines vary from pediatrics, to obstetrics and gynecology, surgery, and general medicine.
I attended a session on latest trends in elastography at euroson in scottland december 2009,where on of the manufactureres were talking about role of transducer pressure on results on study can you please let us know about such ideas in detail.
