The use of ultrasonography and especially of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in the diagnosis of vascular pathologies before and after interventions has significantly increased over the past years due to the broader availability of modern ultrasound systems with CEUS capabilities and more trained user experience in this imaging modality. For the preinterventional and postinterventional work-up of carotid diseases, duplex ultrasound as well as CEUS have been established as the standard-of-care examination procedures for diagnosis, evaluation, and follow-up. In addition to its use for carotid arterial diseases, ultrasonography has also become the primary modality for the screening of vascular pathologies. This review describes the most common pathologies found in ultrasonography of the carotid arteries, the abdominal aorta, and the femoral arteries.
在过去的几年中,由于具有 CEUS 功能的现代超声系统的广泛应用以及在这种成像方式方面更有经验的用户,超声检查,特别是对比增强超声(CEUS)在血管病变的介入前后诊断中的应用显著增加。对于颈动脉疾病的介入前和介入后评估,双功能超声以及 CEUS 已经成为诊断、评估和随访的标准检查程序。除了用于颈动脉疾病外,超声检查也已成为血管病变筛查的主要方式。本文描述了在颈动脉、腹主动脉和股动脉超声检查中最常见的病变。
