Abstract:
Transient perivascular inflammation of the carotid artery (TIPIC) syndrome, previously referred to as 'carotidynia', is an unclassified clinicoradiological entity associating atypical acute neck pain, eccentric perivascular infiltration on imaging and improvement of symptoms either spontaneously or with anti-inflammatory treatment. This case report presents a patient with TIPIC syndrome who underwent five different types of imaging modality, including contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) of the carotids, and describes the CEUS appearances of TIPIC syndrome.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
