Role of acoustic radiation force impulse elastography of placenta in the diagnosis of pre-eclampsia.

Background: Placental dysfunction is one of the main causes of preeclampsia and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Material And Methods: This is a prospective comparative study done on 30 pregnant women with pre-eclampsia and another 30 pregnant women as controls. In all these subjects the elasticity of the placenta was measured.

Doppler sonographic evaluation of resistive index of intra-renal arteries in acute ureteric obstruction.

Background: Acute ureteric colic is one of the most commonly encountered acute abdominal conditions. Diagnosis of obstruction caused by ureteric calculus occasionally becomes challenging if there is inadequate dilation of the urinary tract proximal to obstruction. In such a situation, intra-renal artery Doppler parameters can be used as a diagnostic tool.

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of liver: Pathophysiology with role of radiology in diagnosis and treatment.

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) or Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome is a rare condition which can result in significant abnormalities. Liver involvement in HHT consists primarily of the consequence of various intrahepatic shunts. Even though these vascular shunts are present in the majority of patients with HHT, symptoms occur only in with clear predilection to .
