Ultrasound examination was carried out in 252 patients following specific treatment of uterine and ovarian malignancies. To compare the effectiveness of diagnostic procedures, transabdominal and transvaginal examinations were performed in succession in all the patients using ultrasound (Doppler) technique. Transvaginal study proved relatively more sensitive (98.9%) and diagnostically accurate (97.2%) in detecting relapse. Transabdominal examination carried out in conjunction with color Doppler imaging was best for metastasis detection.

Aim: Thyroid nodules, based on high-resolution ultrasonography (HRUS), are among the most common endocrine abnormalities that affect the general population because of their high estimated prevalence rates. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a safe, cost-effective modality to differentiate between benign and malignant thyroid nodules based on the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (BSRTC), thus avoiding unnecessary surgery. However, categories III and IV of BSRTC remain a controversial issue in clinical practice, encompassing a wide range of risks of malignancy.

Background: This video article describes the use of bone-anchored prostheses for patients with transtibial amputations, most often resulting from trauma, infection, or dysvascular disease. Large studies have shown that about half of all patients with a socket-suspended artificial limb experience limited mobility and limited prosthesis use because of socket-related problems. These problems occur at the socket-residual limb interface as a result of a painful and unstable connection, leading to an asymmetrical gait and subsequent pelvic and back pain.
