High flow priapism caused by perineal trauma is a relatively rare disorder. Early diagnosis represents a mandatory condition for the therapeutic resolution. Ultrasound examination is affordable and a within reach method for diagnosis also in an emergency context. We present the case of a 56-year-old male patient with traumatic priapism which was subsequently investigated by contrast-enhanced ultrasound and shear wave elastography. This may be one of the first cases presented in the literature

The pilot results of the contrast — enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) application in the liver parenchyma assessment are presented in this article. 65 people aged 37 to 69 years were examined, 41 of them (63 %) with chronic viral hepatitis and 24 people (37 %) with established diagnosis of liver cirrhosis as the outcome of viral hepatitis. All patients underwent multiparametric ultrasound examination: ultrasound of the liver in B — mode, color Doppler’s mapping of liver vessels, 2D — Shear Wave Elastography (2DSWE) and CEUS. Liver biopsy and D — Shear Wave Elastography (2DSWE) were used as the reference method.

In this article, based on two clinical examples, the possibilities of multiparametric ultrasound in the differential diagnosis of metastatic and lymphoproliferative changes in lymph nodes in primary-multiple malignant tumors, including breast cancer and lym - phoma, are evaluated. Multiparameteric ultrasound includes B-mode, color and energy Doppler imaging, strain elastography, shear wave elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Standardization and reproducibility of these ultrasound techniques will allow to objectify the study, obtaining specific indicators of shear wave velocity in the zones of interest and specific signs of contrast enhancement, which can be used as impor tant differential diagnostic tool in oncology.

Objective. To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the contrast-enhanced third-generation agent in the detection of angionephrosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease background.Materials and methods. 26 patients (9 men and 17 women; mean age 61.5 ± 4.3 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and NAFLD were examined. All patients underwent complex diagnostics, including: quantitative ultrasound steatometry of the liver in the framework of combined elastography with visual and quantitative assessment of the attenuation coefficient of the ultrasonic wave; ultrasound examination of the kidneys in B-mode with vascular diagnostics in the Doppler mapping mode. Also, all patients underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination of the kidneys with the contrast agent for the diagnosis of angionephrosclerosis.Results. The method of CEUS of the kidneys with patients with type 2 diabetes and NAFLD has sensitivity of 92.7 %, and accuracy of 90.4 %. Color Doppler mode has sensitivity of 66.5–81.4 %, and accuracy of 58.4–73.6 %.Conclusion. The ultrasound contrast agent may be used in the early diagnosis of angionephrosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes and NAFLD as a non-alternative imaging method with no radiation exposure and no nephrotoxicity.
