a 30-year-old woman presented with a palpable subcutaneous nodule in the areolar region of the left breast. sonomammographic examination revealed 2 cystic lesions showing typical “filarial dance” as vigorous twirling movement of multiple curvilinear echoes with mixed red blue color doppler signals that was non-rhythmic, nonpulsatile, and the characteristic pulse doppler trace due to irregular w...

twin reversed arterial perfusion (trap) sequence is a syndrome with poor prognosis, seen only in monochorionic monozygotic twin pregnancies. the incidence is one in 35.000 births and one in 100 monozygotic twin pregnancies. it is characterized with a recipient fetus exhibiting lethal anomalies including acardia and a pump fetus. mortality is usually due to heart failure or premature labor cause...

INTRODUCTION High-frequency ultrasound offers a potential for objective and quantitative assessment of skin thickness and skin echogenicity in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Few studies have however assessed the longitudinal changes of skin involvement using ultrasound. The aim of the study was to investigate changes in skin thickness in early SSc using high frequency ultrasound during one year of f...

BACKGROUND Several suction techniques have been developed recently to enhance tissue acquisition when sampling solid lesions using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). The aim of this study is to determine whether a new modified wet suction technique (MWST) compared with the conventional dry suction technique (DRST) shall present better outcomes with respect to diagnos...

Weaning food is given as a complement to breast milk which helpful for babies in the process of baby led weaning. At six months, baby's digestive tract able digest some such flour so can be introduced solid food. Purple sweet potato has good nutrition carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, and water. Ultrasound modification considered easier, simpler, safer because it does not use che...

introduction: the medical applications of ultrasound on human brain are highly limited by the phase and amplitude aberrations induced by the heterogeneities of the skull. however, it has been shown that time reversing coupled with amplitude compensation can overcome these aberrations. in this work, a model for 2d simulation of the time reversal mirror technique is proposed to study the possibil...

background: breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. screening can reduce the rate of cancer and mortality. the aim of this study is description of screening programs about breast masses with clinical and para clinical examination. methods: this is a descriptive study on 952 women who had volunteered or were referred to tabriz behbood hospital during one-year period. data was collected...

currently available non-invasive clinical methods for diagnosing osteoporosis are mainly associated with ionizing radiation. ultrasonic assessment of bone disease is a more recent technology. a theoretical explanation for the relationship between ultrasonic parameters and bone structure is necessary. thus, two types of bone samples of perspex (hap) and perspex-glass beads were produced. each ty...
