In patients with acute hepatitis, ultrasound demonstrates multiple echogenic foci within a relatively hypoechoic liver parenchyma, the so-called “starry sky” sign (Fig.4) [25]. CT findings of acute hepatitis are nonspecific and include hepatosplenomegaly, thickened gallbladder wall, periportal oedema...
Ultrasound examination should carefully assess the entire abdomen, inspecting for evidence of an underlying disease process. This should include careful inspection of the biliary tree, gallbladder; sphincter of Oddi (duodenal bile duct papilla); pancreas; intestinal...
Objective To investigate the prevalence of three additional ultrasound markers, placental dichotomy, cardiomegaly and 'starry‐sky' liver, in monochorionic twin pregnancy with twin anemia–polycythemia sequence (TAPS). Methods All monochorionic twin pregnancies, diagnosed antenatally with TAPS at our ...
In conclusion, we report on a case of sonographic changes in MCTA placenta and liver examination before anomalies in MCA-PSV Doppler leading to the diagnosis of TAPS.Limouzin, E.Atallah, A.Elisabeth, C.Taillefer, C.Wavrant, S.Audibert, F.Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology...
