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.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the characteristics of combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) and its association with microvascular invasion (MVI) using ultrasonography, particularly contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).
- A retrospective analysis of 57 patients with cHCC-CCA found that those with MVI exhibited specific ultrasonographic features, such as larger tumor size and distinct CEUS patterns.
- Results indicated that features like low echo halo, irregular rim-like enhancement, and early washout are significant risk factors for MVI, providing a predictive tool for clinicians.
Clinical Features and Ultrasonographic Manifestations of Retroperitoneal Nerve Sheath Tumors.
Curr Med Imaging
January 2025
Department of Ultrasound, Peking University International Hospital, Beijing, China.
Article Synopsis
- Retroperitoneal nerve sheath tumors are rare, and distinguishing between benign and malignant types is crucial for treating patients effectively.
- A study analyzed 49 patients with benign tumors using ultrasound imaging, applying Adler's grading system to assess tumor characteristics and perform statistical analyses.
- The findings highlight key differences between benign and malignant tumors, such as size and shape, with a maximum diameter of 9.9 cm being a significant indicator of malignancy, suggesting that ultrasonography can enhance diagnostic accuracy and inform treatment approaches.
Nomogram for predicting the efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation for uterine fibroids based on oxytocin experimentation and ultrasonographic features: a retrospective single-center study.
Int J Hyperthermia
December 2025
State Key Laboratory of Ultrasound in Medicine and Engineering, College of Biomedical Engineering, Chongqing Medical Unibersity, Chongqing, China.
Article Synopsis
- Developed a nomogram to predict the effectiveness of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for treating uterine fibroids by analyzing oxytocin levels and sonographic features of fibroids.
- Conducted a retrospective study of 60 patients, utilizing logistic regression to identify key predictive factors like myoma type, blood flow, and oxytocin classification, resulting in a model assessed using R language.
- The model demonstrated strong predictive ability with an area under the curve of 0.887 and good calibration, suggesting it can effectively guide clinicians in selecting appropriate patients for HIFU treatment.

Background: Premorbid sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and obesity are epiphenomena that affect survival and functional outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The effects of preexisting sarcopenia and/or osteopenia on long-term outcome after ischemic stroke were herein prospectively studied.
Methods: Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DeXA), bio-impedance analysis (BIA) and muscle ultrasonography (US) data were prospectively collected within the first 72 hours in 297 consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients (45.
