In recent years, a novel Doppler ultrasonography (US) modality-superb microvascular imaging (SMI)-has been presented as a reliable method to evaluate small vessel blood flow with minimised motion artefacts. In this review, we present the challenges of incorporating SMI in daily practice with detailed and comparable US images of a fingertip. The main focus of this paper is the discussion of all tested US techniques, artefacts, and practical challenges for evaluating Raynaud's syndrome in systemic sclerosis. Despite a few reports on SMI use in assessing nailfold capillaries, there is still a need for more evidence of its value and possibilities for its standardisation.
近年来,一种新型的多普勒超声(US)模式——超微血管成像(SMI)——已被提出,作为一种评估小血管血流且能将运动伪像降至最低的可靠方法。在本综述中,我们通过指尖详细且可比较的超声图像,阐述了将SMI纳入日常实践所面临的挑战。本文的主要重点是讨论所有用于评估系统性硬化症中雷诺综合征的超声技术、伪像及实际挑战。尽管有一些关于SMI用于评估甲襞毛细血管的报道,但仍需要更多证据证明其价值以及标准化的可能性。
