Herein, we report the performance of first-trimester congenital heart disease (CHD) screening and factors that may affect the detection rate of CHDs.Methods: This retrospective observational study included patients who underwent first-trimester screening and subsequently gave birth at our facility. We analyzed the performance of first-trimester screening for CHD and major CHD (CHD requiring cardiac surgery or interventional catheterization within 12 months of birth).Results: Of the 6614 fetuses included, 53 had CHD and 35 had major CHD. For the prenatal diagnosis of CHD, the detection rate, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and first-trimester detection rate for CHD were 64.1%, 99.9%, 94.4%, 99.7%, and 82.9%, respectively; the respective values for major CHD were 85.7%, 99.96%, 93.75%, 99.92%, and 85.7%. The detection rate was not significantly different when classified by crown-rump length or number of fetuses. A weak correlation was observed between low detection rate of major CHD and lower maternal body mass index (BMI) (correlation ratio: 0.17). The detection rate was significantly higher when the fetus was scanned with its spine at the 5-7 o'clock position (posterior spine) than at other positions (odds ratio: 3.82, 95% confidence interval: 1.16-12.5, p = 0.02).Conclusion: Posterior spine contributes to an improved diagnostic rate in first-trimester CHD screening. In addition, sonographers must recognize that low maternal BMI is a risk factor of false-negative results.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"131-138"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12000114/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142562987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study investigated a method for classifying ultrasound images to fatty liver grades based on echo-envelope statistics (ES) and convolutional neural network (CNN) analyses.Methods: Three fatty liver grades, i.e., normal, mild, and moderate-to-severe, were defined using the thresholds of the magnetic resonance imaging-derived proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF). There were 10 cases of each grade, totaling 30 cases. To visualize the texture information affected by the deposition of fat droplets within the liver, the maps of first- and fourth-order moments and the heat maps formed from both moments were employed as parametric images derived from the ES. Several dozen to hundreds of regions of interest (ROIs) were extracted from the liver region in each parametric image. A total of 7680 ROIs were utilized for the transfer learning of a pretrained VGG-16 and classified using the transfer-learned VGG-16.Results: The classification accuracies of the ROIs in all types of the parametric images were approximately 46%. The fatty liver grade for each case was determined by hard voting on the classified ROIs within the case. In the case of the fourth-order moment maps, the classification accuracy of the cases through hard voting mostly increased to approximately 63%.Conclusions: The formation of parametric images derived from the ES and the CNN classification of the parametric images were proposed for the quantitative diagnosis of liver steatosis. In more than 60% of the cases, the fatty liver grade could be estimated solely using ultrasound images.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"5-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11799055/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142695841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MRI-guided needle biopsy is recommended or considered for such MRI-only detected breast lesions invisible on second-look US, but many facilities in Japan cannot perform this biopsy procedure because it is expensive and time consuming. Thus, a simpler and more accessible diagnostic method is needed. Two studies to date have shown that third-look contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) plus needle biopsy for MRI-only detected breast lesions (i.e., MRI + /MG-/US-) that were not detected on second-look US showed moderate/high sensitivity (57.1 and 90.9%) and high specificity (100.0% in both studies) with no severe complications. In addition, the identification rate was higher for MRI-only lesions with a higher MRI BI-RADS category (i.e., category 4/5) than for those with a lower category (i.e., category 3). Despite the fact that there are limitations in our literature review, CEUS plus needle biopsy is a feasible and convenient diagnostic tool for MRI-only lesions invisible on second-look US and is expected to reduce the frequency of MRI-guided needle biopsy. When third-look CEUS does not reveal MRI-only lesions, a further indication for MRI-guided needle biopsy should be considered according to the BI-RADS category.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"599-604"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11499426/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9093632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tissue cores were obtained from a chicken breast phantom, which is a common substitute for human breast tissue. Five cores were taken for each combination and weighed.Results: The CNB combination provided significantly lighter tissue cores compared with the VAB combinations with the same-size (14-G) needle (P < 0.01). The combinations using the thickest needle obtained the heaviest among all systems (P < 0.02). The untethered battery-free VAB system yielded the lightest specimen among the VAB systems with the same-sized (12-G) needle (P < 0.04). The percent coefficient of variation (%CV) of the core weights obtained using VAB without a basket was significantly smaller compared with the core weights obtained using VAB with a basket (P < 0.01).Conclusion: VAB systems can yield larger tissue cores compared with CNB systems. The size of the tissue cores varies even with the same-sized needle among different VAB systems. When performing a breast tissue biopsy, it is important to consider not only CNB versus VAB but also what specific device to use with which needle size.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"627-633"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141898803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
