Background And Aims: Precision-cut tissue slices (PCTS) are widely used as an culture tissue culture technique to study pathogeneses of diseases and drug activities in organs . A novel application of the PCTS model may be in the field of translational research into cholangiopathies such as biliary atresia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to apply the precision-cut slice technique to human bile duct and gallbladder tissue.

- The study evaluates a quality control system for first-trimester anatomical screening (FTAS) ultrasound exams and the learning curves of sonographers involved in these screenings.
- Conducted between 2012 and 2015 in North-Netherlands, researchers analyzed logbook images from six sonographers, focusing on their ability to visualize 12 specific anatomical planes.
- Results showed that only 57% of logbooks met the sufficient score criteria, with the highest visualization success for the fetal skull and brain, while the lowest scores were for the face and spine, indicating areas where sonographers need improvement.
