Evaluation of mesh implants using OmniView combining with volume contrast imaging with three-dimensional ultrasound / 中华超声影像学杂志

Objective To evaluate the mesh implants following minimally invasive abdominal sacrocolpopexy using three-dimensional ultrasound with OmniView and volume contrast imaging.Methods Sixteen patients underwent the mesh implant were examined from the 6 months to 1 0 months after sacrocolpopexy retrospectively by 3D OmniView combining with VCI to view the mesh at rest and on Valsalva.Results Nine cases appeared straight flat and 7 cases appeared folded or shrinkage among the 16 cases mesh implants.3D Omniview combining with VCI could image all the cases of mesh in any planes. The imaging rate was 100%.Conclusions 3D OmniView combining VCI can well image the mesh implants appeared shrinkage or folded.

Three-dimensional volume contrast imaging in location of fetal conus medullaris level / 中国介入影像与治疗学

Objective To evaluate the repeatability for location of the level of fetal conus medullaris (CM) with three-dimensional volume contrast imaging (3D-VCI).Methods Totally 164 normal fetuses and 12 fetuses with low-lying CM were enrolled.The location of fetal CM was performed sonographically using 3D-VCI,and the inter-and intra-observer agreement was assessed.Results The Kappa value of inter-and intra-observer agreement in evaluation on normal fetues CM was 0.943 and 0.915,and that for abnormal fetues CM was 0.965 and 0.913,respectively.Conclusion Inter-and intra-observer agreement of 3I-VCI in location of level of fetal CM is high.The acquired images are clear and intuitive,which is manipulated simply and conveniently.This method can be used for rapid evaluation of the level of fetal CM.
