Conventional transabdominal ultrasound depicts a flat-elevated lesion 15 mm in diameter in the body of the gallbladder. The lesion (arrow) consists of a superficial hyperechoic part and a deep hypoechoic area, accompanied by an irregular outermost hyperechoic layer. A hyperechoic spot (arrowhead) is noted in the deep hypoechoic area.

Purpose: Improve the accuracy of one-stage object detection by modifying the YOLOv7 with Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM), known as YOLOv7-CBAM, which can automatically identify torn or intact rotator cuff tendon to assist physicians in diagnosing rotator cuff lesions through ultrasound.

Methods: Between 2020 and 2021, patients who experienced shoulder pain for over 3 months and had both ultrasound and MRI examinations were categorized into torn and intact group. To ensure balanced training, we included the same number of patients on both groups.

Article Synopsis
  • Gastric cancer, primarily adenocarcinomas, is a leading cause of cancer death, and mixed neuroendocrine-non-neuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNEN) is one of the rarest subtypes, with significant bleeding occurring in some patients.
  • A case study involves a healthy 26-year-old male who had two major gastrointestinal bleeding episodes, leading to the discovery of a 15-mm lesion at the gastroesophageal junction, which was later diagnosed as a mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma.
  • Despite its rarity and the lack of established treatment protocols, the patient underwent surgery and chemotherapy, with no evidence of cancer recurrence two years later.

Purpose: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the role of an additional high mechanical index (MI) setting scan during the post-vascular phase (PVP) in detecting deep-seated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions.

Methods: A total of 805 confirmed HCCs, which underwent Sonazoid-based contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) between January 2014 and October 2021, were included. Low MI scan was initially employed for lesion detection during the PVP, followed by high MI scan.
