Abdominal ultrasound is the method of first choice in many clinical situations. Gray scale imaging (B-mode) and conventional Doppler techniques are nowadays complemented by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), elastography, fat quantification and further technologies which allow multimodal characterization of organs and tissue structure using panoramic imaging, 3D-techniques and image fusion. The development of small portable devices augments the spectrum for sonographic diagnostics. In this review, we describe the current status of ultrasound technology based on published evidence. In addition, we provide guidance for quality assurance.
