Comparison of the resistive indices obtained in the uterine artery and the ophthalmic artery in preeclamptic and normotensive patients in Doppler US.

J Ultrason

June 2020

University Institute of Radiological Sciences and Medical Imaging Technologies (UIRSMIT), Faculty of Allied Health Sciences (FAHS), University of Lahore, Lahaur , Pakistan.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study measured blood flow resistive index in these arteries using Doppler ultrasound on 60 pregnant women (30 with preeclampsia and 30 without), revealing significant differences in the resistive index between the two groups.
  • * The research found a strong negative correlation in the resistive index of the arteries in preeclamptic women, while normotensive women showed a positive correlation, suggesting that Doppler ultrasound can effectively diagnose preeclampsia by assessing these hemodynamic changes.

Association of spectral Doppler cardiac activity in the lower limb veins and echocardiographic findings in patients with tricuspid regurgitation.

J Ultrason

June 2020

University Institute of Radiological Sciences and Medical Imaging Technologies, Faculty of Allied Health Sciences, The University of Lahore, Lahore , Pakistan.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore the link between Doppler cardiac activity in lower limb veins and echocardiographic findings related to tricuspid regurgitation, involving 400 participants over 13 months.
  • Out of the total, 200 individuals exhibited cardiac activity in the lower limb veins, while 204 were diagnosed with tricuspid regurgitation during echocardiography.
  • Statistical analysis indicated a significant correlation between the cardiac activity in lower limb veins and tricuspid regurgitation, with notable mean differences in Doppler readings.

Article Synopsis
  • Subacromial-subdeltoid chronic bursitis is a common cause of shoulder pain, with varying sonographic appearances, but rice bodies are a rare indication of this condition.
  • A case involving a 36-year-old male showed rice bodies via ultrasound, later confirmed by MRI and surgery-related tests, highlighting a Grade-3 impingement syndrome.
  • Despite the unique presentation of rice bodies aiding diagnosis, their rarity makes them challenging to identify and differentiate from other shoulder issues.

Relation of Color Doppler Twinkling Artifact and Scale or Pulse Repetition Frequency.

J Med Ultrasound

February 2019

Department of University Institute of Radiological Sciences and Medical Imaging Technologies (UIRSMIT), Faculty of Allied Health Sciences (FAHS), University of Lahore, Pakistan.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how different pulse repetition frequencies (PRF) affect the appearance of color Doppler twinkling artifacts during ultrasound exams over 20 months.
  • Researchers examined 500 structures with observed twinkling artifacts and compared them to 500 structures without artifacts using both low and high PRF settings.
  • The results showed that changes in PRF did not significantly affect the twinkling artifact, indicating that the artifact's appearance is independent of the PRF/scale used.
