Subcutaneous and intramuscular cysticercosis: high-resolution sonography.
Sir, We read the article Subcutaneous nodules preceding convulsions due to neural cysticercosis by Singrodia et al.[1] They had rightly pointed out that the prerequisite for successful treatment of cysticercosis with anthelminthics is early diagnosis; however, they did excisional biopsy for the diagnosis. Here, we want to draw the kind attention to a very important non-invasive diagnostic tec...
متن کاملHigh-resolution sonography of the normal extrapelvic vas deferens.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of sonographic visualization of the normal extrapelvic vas deferens and to analyze its appearance and dimensions. METHODS Scans of the scrotum and spermatic cords were obtained in 25 fertile volunteers. Identification of the vas deferens was attempted bilaterally in the scrotal, suprascrotal, and prepubic segments in all vol...
متن کاملVisualization of the Long Thoracic Nerve using High-Resolution Sonography.
PURPOSE The long thoracic nerve (LTN) innervates the serratus anterior muscle (SA) which plays an important role in shoulder function. Evaluation of the LTN has so far been restricted to clinical assessment and partly electromyography and neurography. Progress of high-resolution ultrasound (HRUS) increasingly enables visualization of small peripheral nerves and their pathologies. We therefore a...
متن کاملCarotid atherosclerosis: high-resolution real-time sonography correlated with angiography.
The merits of high-resolution real-time sonography in detection of plaque and estimation of stenoses were compared with angiography in 97 carotid bifurcations from 50 consecutive patients. For flow-reducing lesions, that is, stenosis greater than or equal to 50% or complete occlusion, sonographic accuracy was 86% and the mean difference in percentage narrowing was 17% (SD, 21.6%). For detection...
متن کاملColor Doppler sonography in the detection of parathyroid adenomas.
BACKGROUND Various diagnostic modalities have been utilized to aid in the detection of abnormal parathyroid tissue; however, its localization is not always easy. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the evaluation of potential hemodynamic changes in thyroid arteries could aid in the detection of parathyroid adenomas. METHODS Twenty-eight patients with laboratory evidence of hype...
