Role of Colour Doppler in Evaluation of Venous Abnormalities of Lower Limb: A Prospective Cross Sectional Study | Chapter 7 | Highlights on Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 16

 Background: Venous abnormalities in the lower limbs are a very prevalent cause of morbidity. Despite clinical diagnosis being the cornerstone, Color Doppler Ultrasound has become the research of choice for confirming the diagnosis of lower limb venous disease. This study looked into the role of Color Doppler ultrasound in various venous disorders of the lower leg, and the sonographic findings were compared to surgical and clinical findings. The participants in this study were 100 individuals of different ages and genders who came with clinically suspected entities affecting the lower leg venous system. Our findings demonstrated a clear male preponderance (65%) in the age group 21-40 years, with a 41 percent incidence rate. Isolated varicose veins were the most common, accounting for 58%, followed by isolated DVT (29%), varicose veins with thrombophlebitis (5%), DVT with thrombophlebitis (5%), DVT with varicose veins (2%), and hematoma (1%). (1 percent). The results were 100 percent accurate and matched the procedure perfectly.  Color Doppler Ultrasound is unique because of its great feasibility, accessibility, and cost effectiveness. Its dynamism is also used to generate fluctuations in blood flow by a variety of movements conducted by patients, radiologists, and machine factors in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

Reporting a Case of Gastric Lactobezoar - Ultrasound Diagnosis | Chapter 2 | Challenges in Disease and Health Research Vol. 4

 In the sense of clinically presenting characteristics, gastric lactobezoars are observed in neonates and diagnosed with the aid of imaging modalities. Inspissed milk mixes with the mucous and contributes to ball formation such as semisolid mass. Preterm infants are typically present with abdominal swelling, with or without intestinal obstruction characteristics. In children of a higher age group, the disorder is relatively rare. We have a 3-year-old male child with a history of stomach pain and swelling and sporadic vomiting episodes. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed some stomach mass that was confirmed in subsequent barium and computerised tomography tests. He has been absolutely retrieved Conservative endoscopic N-acetylcysteine management. Because of various ages and sex classes, the present case gains little more meaning. In toddlers, lactobezoars are very rare as these are often seen in preterm infants fed with formula feeds. With or without vomiting, the baby displays signs of abdominal distension and discomfort. Easy US can be used to make the diagnosis. NAC is viewed conservatively by the majority of children. Recurrence is not that widespread.
