  5. Role of diagnostic ultrasound in the assessment of musculoskeletal

    Similarly, ultrasound is useful in assessing muscle injury. There will be loss of the normal pennate pattern of the muscle fibres corresponding to the location of the damage within muscle. However, in the first 25 hours muscle injury can sometimes be difficult to identify using ultrasound [ Allen and Wilson, 2007 ].

  8. Evaluating the Role of Breast Ultrasound in Early Detection of Breast

    Breast cancer, affecting both genders, but mostly females, exhibits shifting demographic patterns, with an increasing incidence in younger age groups. Early identification through mammography, clinical examinations, and breast self-exams enhances treatment efficacy, but challenges persist in low- and medium-income countries due to limited imaging resources. This review assesses the feasibility ...

  11. Role of Uterine Artery Doppler Ultrasound in Predicting Pre-Eclampsia

    Background and objective. Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. The utility of Doppler ultrasonography (U/S) in predicting PE has not been extensively explored. This study aimed to determine the role of Doppler U/S in predicting PE among high-risk women. Methodology.
