ISCHEMIC COLITIS

In conclusion, in routine clinical practice many cases of ischemic colitis are considered to have non-specific abdominal pain, so an emergency  imaging  examination  (ultrasound or CT)  is usually carried out without a specific clinical suspicion.  In our experience ischemic colitis can be suspected with high reliability (high PPV) when an elderly patient with sudden abdominal pain and/or rectal bleeding shows segmental wall thickening of a long colonic  segment  ( > 10  cm)  in  the  sonographic  examination.
Because endoscopic features of ischemic colitis are nonspecific, this can help to improve further diagnosis. Moreover, our results support that ultrasound could be considered an alternative diagnostic technique to colonoscopy in high-risk cases or patients with contraindications.

“The Effervescent Gallbladder”: A Rare Ultrasonographic Finding that Reflects the Presence of Gas within the Gallbladder

Abstract
▼
This article deals with the “effervescent gallbladder” [sủi bọt], a rare
ultrasonographic finding indicative of the presence of gas within the gallbladder. 3 cases are described and illustrated with photographs. Possible causes are reviewed and discussed.

SWE of Normal Testicular Tissue, Testicular Microlithiasis and Testicular Cancer

In conclusion, our study shows that the presence of TML increases stiffness slightly, but the range is still within that of normal testicles. Increased velocity may indicate testicular malignancy in testicular lesions, and the use of elastography seems a promising method for the evaluation of testicular lesions.
