The aim of this scoping review was to map the evidence base regarding the use of LUS to assess cardiac surgery patients. Materials and Methods: The JBI methodology was used to conduct this particular scoping review. Results: In total, 90 publications were identified and of those, 73 were research studies, six were narrative reviews, and 11 were narrative, opinion, and text articles. The studies that were included were predominantly observational cohorts and aimed to determine or compare LUS diagnostic ability, prognostic ability, or both. The LUS methods used with patients were heterogeneous and variably reported. Conclusion: Despite an increasing number of studies since 2014, standardized protocols for the use of LUS are yet to be widely adopted and remain an important area for further work. Future research should consider exploring perceptions and experiences of LUS, the use of LUS in treatment outcome measurement, and use by nonphysician health care professionals.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136059998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was conducted over a 9-month period, in the emergency department of a teaching hospital, within the Swat district of Pakistan. After assessing the clinical symptoms of the fracture by an emergency orthopedic physician, sonography was followed by a radiograph performed for these referred patients. Results: Sonography shows a diagnostic accuracy of 91.23% for detecting long bone fractures, with a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 76.84%, respectively. The positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 87.64% and 100%, respectively. Sonography was able to detect small fractures (up to 0.23 mm) that are often missed on the patient’s radiograph. Conclusion: Sonography may be useful as an initial screening imaging technique for the diagnosis of long bone fractures. The potential exists to reduce the need for unnecessary skeletal radiographs, which could reduce treatment time, cost, and ionizing radiation hazards.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"116 1","pages":"576 - 588"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80621134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate a possible association between clinical and laboratory findings with the degree of fatty liver deposition, in pediatric patients. This study enrolled 323 pediatric patients with suspected fatty liver disease, who underwent a liver sonogram. The amount of fatty infiltration, within the liver, was assessed. The clinical data include age and body mass index (BMI), which were collected from their medical records. The liver sonogram revealed fatty infiltration in 212 (66%) of the patients. Of those patients, 120 (38%) displayed mild infiltration, 65 (20%) exhibited moderate infiltration, and 27 (8%) demonstrated severe infiltration. Patients with severe fatty infiltration had significantly higher levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT). The different levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), among patients, with varied degrees of fatty infiltration, were not statistically significant. A liver sonogram can be utilized to assess liver damage and inflammation, in pediatric patients, with fatty liver disease. Sonographers should prioritize evaluating the liver size, hepatic vasculature, and liver parenchyma for signs of fatty infiltration. Monitoring ALT levels appears to be crucial in managing pediatric patients, with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87603136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ligaments investigated include the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL), calcaneofibular ligament (CFL), and the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL). The influence of age, sex, height, weight, body mass index, and hours of physical exercise on uninjured ankle ligament band thickness was also explored. The lateral ankle ligaments of both limbs of 27 physically active adults (18–50 years of age) were sonographically imaged in short and long-axis planes to determine the number of bands and measure each band thickness. The ligament banding and ankle ligament band thickness was compared between contralateral uninjured limbs. Bilateral symmetry of the number of ATFL, CFL, and AITFL bands was consistently identified between right and left uninjured limbs using short-axis sonographic imaging. No significant difference ( P > .05) in ankle ligament band thickness (acquired from long-axis images of ligament bands) between uninjured contralateral limbs was identified. The current sonographic practice of comparison of ankle ligament morphology and thickness between uninjured and injured limbs of the same person following an acute ankle injury to aid diagnosis of injury would appear justified.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87023703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to assess the clinical use of spectral Doppler in managing thyroid nodules. This prospective cohort study included 153 patients who underwent thyroid nodule evaluation, using sonography. Peak systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity (EDV), resistive index (RI), and pulsatility index (PI) were measured, within the suspected lesions. Among the 209 identified thyroid nodules, 193 (92%) were benign and 16 (7.6%) were malignant. The RI and PI values of malignant nodules were significantly higher than measured within benign nodules. There was also a significant difference in the EDV between benign and malignant nodules ( P = .012). The RI had the highest diagnostic accuracy, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic, area under the curve, of 0.839 (95% confidence interval, 0.748–0.930). The optimal cutoff value for RI was 0.73. The results indicate that the RI with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.64, in the univariate analysis, and an OR of 2.31, in the multivariate analysis, might be successful in predicting a malignant thyroid nodule. This cohort study demonstrated a high sensitivity and specificity for RI and PI as predictors of malignancy in thyroid nodules, with diagnostic cutoff points of 0.73 and 1.37, respectively.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89278568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
