Ultrasonographic features of canine abdominal malignant histiocytosis (MH) of 16 dogs are reported. The most common finding was the presence of hypoechoic nodules in the spleen, some of which caused distortion of the splenic margin. The liver was the second-most commonly affected organ. Hepatic ultrasonographic features were highly variable, including hypoechoic, hyperechoic, or mixed echogenic lesions. Other common ultrasonographic abnormalities included hypoechoic nodules in the kidneys and mesenteric and medial iliac lymphadenopathy. The results of this study suggest that the ultrasonographic appearance of canine abdominal MH is nonspecific, and definitive diagnosis requires cytologic or histologic examination.

Clinicopathologic and ultrasonographic features of combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma and its correlation with microvascular invasion: a predictive role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
Front Oncol
December 2024
Clinical Medical College, Guizhou Medical University, Guiyang, Guizhou, China.
Background: This study aims to investigate the clinicopathological and ultrasonography characteristics of combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) and its correlation with microvascular invasion (MVI), as well as the predictive value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 57 patients diagnosed with cHCC-CCA between November 2017 and May 2023 at Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital. Among them, 27 patients were MVI-positive and 30 patients were MVI-negative, all of whom underwent preoperative CEUS within 2 weeks.
Clinical Features and Ultrasonographic Manifestations of Retroperitoneal Nerve Sheath Tumors.
Curr Med Imaging
January 2025
Department of Ultrasound, Peking University International Hospital, Beijing, China.
Objectives: Retroperitoneal nerve sheath tumors are uncommon, representing a small fraction of all primary retroperitoneal neoplasms. Accurate differentiation between benign and malignant forms is essential for optimal clinical management. This study assessed the clinical profiles and sonographic traits of retroperitoneal nerve sheath tumors with the goal of enhancing diagnostic precision and developing therapeutic strategies.

State Key Laboratory of Ultrasound in Medicine and Engineering, College of Biomedical Engineering, Chongqing Medical Unibersity, Chongqing, China.
Objective: To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting the effectiveness of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for uterine fibroids based on oxytocin experiments combined with sonographic features.
Methods: Sixty patients with uterine fibroids treated with HIFU combined with oxytocin for uterine fibroids were retrospectively analyzed. Before HIFU treatment, all patients underwent abdominal ultrasonography and oxytocin testing for classification.

Background Uterine isthmocele, a defect in the uterine wall at the cesarean scar, is increasingly recognized due to the rising rate of cesarean deliveries. Often asymptomatic, it may lead to complications such as abnormal bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, secondary infertility, or uterine rupture during subsequent pregnancies. Objective This study aimed to assess the prevalence, clinical features, and associated risk factors of uterine isthmocele among women with previous cesarean scars over four years (2019-2023) at Rabia Balkhi Hospital, Afghanistan.
