Feb

Overview

CEUS uses intravascular microbubble agents to visualize real time perfusion without ionizing radiation useful for focal lesion characterization.

Technique

Low mechanical index imaging preserves microbubbles. Timing and bolus technique affect enhancement patterns.

Clinical Uses

Liver lesion characterization focal renal and splenic lesions and guidance for ablation.

Limitations and Safety

Contrast contraindications are rare. Operator skill and availability influence use.

Ultrasound US

Feb

Overview

Ultrasound uses sound wave reflection to produce real time images. It is portable radiation free and excellent for soft tissue vascular and obstetric imaging.

Technique

Probe selection Doppler settings and patient positioning determine image quality. Operator skill is a major determinant of diagnostic accuracy.

Clinical Uses

Applications include abdominal obstetric vascular Doppler musculoskeletal thyroid and point of care ultrasound POCUS.

Limitations and Safety

Limited penetration in obese or gas filled patients. Operator dependence and limited bone and air visualization are constraints.
