Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the liver: vascular pathologies and interventions = Kontrastmittelunterstützte Sonografie der Leber : vaskuläre Pathologien und Interventionen
Over the past two decades, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has been established as a method complementary to B-mode ultrasound and color Doppler sonography for diagnosing vascular liver pathologies and interventions. The objective of this review is to elucidate the application of CEUS in diagnos...

| Summary: | Over the past two decades, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has been established as a method complementary to B-mode ultrasound and color Doppler sonography for diagnosing vascular liver pathologies and interventions. The objective of this review is to elucidate the application of CEUS in diagnosing vascular pathologies and interventional procedures.Considering the limitations of ultrasound, CEUS presents a similar alternative to other imaging modalities, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, for evaluating vascular pathologies, guiding interventions, identifying complications, and assessing outcomes post intervention. Due to its widespread availability and the absence of radiation exposure, CEUS should be employed as a primary modality. |
