Computed tomography (CT) is one of the main diagnostic methods for assessing both acute gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) and bowel ischemia due to its widespread availability, excellent spatial resolution, and high…
Small bowel tumors are rare gastrointestinal tumors. Neuroendocrine tumors are the most common and demonstrate unique subtypes depending on their location. Adenocarcinomas are most common in the duodenum demonstrating luminal…
Ileal pouches have drastically improved the quality of life in patients requiring total proctocolectomy. There are unique imaging characteristics of the pouch and its complications that radiologists should be familiar…
Computed tomography enterography, magnetic resonance enterography, and bowel ultrasound are complementary tools central to diagnosing and monitoring Crohn disease. These modalities can identify active inflammation, penetrating, and stricturing disease. Crohn…
Abstract Objective This paper describes the relationship between elastic tissue properties and strain and presents an initial investigation of pulse-echo ultrasound to measure two uncorrelated elastic parameters in tissue-mimicking phantoms….
Abstract Objective To develop a treatment that enhances recovery from envenomation-induced lesions caused by Bothrops jararaca venom by using ultrasound in combination with gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Methods A total of…
Abstract Objective Fat embolism syndrome and cerebral fat emboli are rare yet serious conditions arising from systemic distribution of bone marrow emboli. Emboli are known to produce high-intensity transient signals…

Abstract Objective Arterial stiffening serves as an early indicator for a variety of cardiovascular diseases. Arterial Dispersion Ultrasound Vibrometry (ADUV) is a method that leverages acoustic radiation force to stimulate…
Abstract Objective The rise in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease prevalence, closely linked with metabolic syndromes and obesity, demands accurate, cost-effective diagnostic methods for early-stage fat quantification in the liver….
