Aim: To propose a standardized, high-resolution ultrasound (US) protocol to assess the patellar tendon-Hoffa fat pad interface (PTHFPI) in patients with (proximal) patellar tendinopathy (PPT).

Methods: Using a high-frequency transducer and a high-level machine, we matched the cadaveric and histological microarchitecture of the PTHFPI with multiple sonographic patterns of patients with PPT. Likewise, high-sensitive color/power Doppler assessments were also performed to evaluate the microcirculation of the soft tissues beneath the patellar tendon.

Musculoskeletal ultrasound characteristics of checkpoint inhibitor-associated inflammatory arthritis.

Semin Arthritis Rheum

Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Cancer immunotherapy has significantly improved solid cancer treatment but can lead to immune-related side effects, including inflammatory arthritis, prompting the use of point-of-care musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) for diagnosis.* -
  • In a study involving 55 patients with suspected musculoskeletal issues post-checkpoint inhibition therapy, it was found that 62% had definite inflammatory arthritis, with MSKUS revealing key features such as synovial thickening and hyperemia.* -
  • MSKUS was particularly valuable, as it detected inflammatory signs in patients who showed no clinical symptoms, highlighting its effectiveness in diagnosing musculoskeletal immune-related adverse events.*

Characterization of oral biomarkers during early healing at augmented dental implant sites.

J Periodontal Res

August 2024

Division of Periodontology, Department of Oral Medicine, Infection, and Immunity, Harvard School of Dental Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • The study looked at how certain proteins (biomarkers) that help with healing show up in the mouth after dental surgery using connective tissue grafts (CTG).
  • It involved 28 people who had single dental implants with soft tissue problems, and they were treated in two different ways (CAF and TUN) while checking their healing over 3 months.
  • Important findings showed that some healing proteins (VEGF and TIMP-2) reacted differently depending on the treatment method, and higher levels of these proteins at 7 days were linked to better recovery later on.

Conventional and Doppler ultrasonographic diagnosis of subclinical pregnancy toxemia with altered serum cortisol and biochemical parameters in pregnant does.

Res Vet Sci

August 2024

Department of Animal Medicine and Infectious Diseases (Animal Internal Medicine), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Sadat City, Sadat City 32897, Egypt.

The pathogenesis and diagnosis of subclinical pregnancy toxemia (SCPT) remain elusive and need further investigation in pregnant does. Therefore, the aim of our study was to describe the typical properties of hepatic venous hemodynamics by Doppler ultrasonography. A total of 70 pregnant does were classified based on the blood serum concentrations of β-hydroxybutyric acid (βHBA), pregnant does were categorized into control group (βHBA concentrations <0.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to quantify the accuracy of partial volume-corrected three-dimensional volume flow (3DVF) measurements as a function of spatial sampling beam density using carefully-designed parametric analyses in order to inform the target applications of 3DVF.

Methods: Experimental investigations employed a mechanically-swept curvilinear ultrasound array to acquire 3D color flow (6.3 MHz) images in flow phantoms consisting of four lumen diameters (6.
