Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how effective time-intensity curve (TIC) analysis and subjective visual assessment of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) are when combined with the Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) for diagnosing adnexal lesions with solid components.
- Conducted at multiple centers from September 2021 to December 2022, the study analyzed 180 lesions from 175 women, comparing diagnostic performances using receiver operating characteristic curves.
- Results showed that integrating CEUS with O-RADS significantly improved diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.86) compared to O-RADS alone (AUC 0.78), and both CEUS assessment methods (TIC and subjective assessment
Objectives: To evaluate the additional advantages of integrating contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) into the Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) ultrasound (US) for the characterization of adnexal lesions with solid components.
Materials And Methods: This prospective multicenter study recruited women suspected of having adnexal lesions with solid components between September 2021 and December 2022. All patients scheduled for surgery underwent preoperative CEUS and US examinations.
Objective: Postoperative recurrence of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar disc increases the physical damage and financial burden on patients and negatively affects physicians' treatment decisions. We conducted this meta-analysis to explore the risk factors for postoperative recurrence of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar disc for lumbar disc herniation.
Methods: We conducted article search in the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases.
