Abstract:
Objective To assess the value and safety of SonoVue in ultrasonic diagnosis of abdominal diseases. Methods A total of 204 patients (149 male, 55 female) with abdominal examination of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) with SonoVue from August 2007 to February 2009 were reviewed. Results Definitive diagnosis were obtained 215 times in 204 patients (233 times) with abdominal CEUS. The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS was 92.27%, significant higher than that of conventional ultrasonography (62.23%). Anaphylactic shock happened 1 time (0.43%) in 1 patient. Conclusion CEUS with SonoVue can provide a high diagnostic accuracy with relatively safety of the possibility of serious adverse event.
