Recent advances in ultrasound: high-resolution imaging of superficial structures
Abstract:
In the past few years, sophisticated ultrasound systems specifically designed for the evaluation of superficial organs and structures have been developed. These "high-resolution" scanners are particularly well suited to diagnostic imaging in the neck. This review summarizes current clinical applications of this evolving technology and highlights initial experience with a prototype scanner that is now commercially available. Particular attention is directed to high-resolution ultrasonography of the thyroid and parathyroid glands, the extracranial carotid arteries, and neoplastic and inflammatory masses of the neck.U

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...
