Mashup Score: 4Misdiagnosis or Missed Diagnosis: Digging Out the “Near-Field Clutter” Artifact in a Patient with Stroke - 3 year(s) ago
Near-field clutter (NFC) or artifact is a frequently encountered ultrasound artifact, but scarce literature exists on the exact mechanism(s) governing this artifact. In particular, NFC can mimic a left ventricular (LV) thrombus, which may be a diagnostic challenge, especially when the clinical context of a thrombus is suggestive. Alternatively, NFC may also mask a true structure or even obscure a…

Mashup Score: 5Systematic Assessment of the Impact of Ultrasound-Enhancing Agents upon Measurements of Cardiac Size and Function by Echocardiography - 4 year(s) ago
Echocardiography with an ultrasound-enhancing contrast agent (CON) is a powerful tool for identifying the endocardial border. However, the precise relationship of measurements obtained from CON to the reference values of two-dimensional unenhanced echocardiography (BASL) remains undefined, especially regarding wall thickness. The aim of this study was to systematically determine the differences…

This is the moment when you wish you had brought #UEAs into the room. One can also tilt the probe to reduce the near field clutter https://t.co/aBg8WyzwMe @CASEfromASE #EchoFirst @ASE360 #ASEchoJC @iamritu @EGarciaSayan @rajdoc2005 https://t.co/Dez4IU09La
