We are familiar with heart attack stroke and cardiac arrest as fatal heart conditions but there are many other conditions that require our attention such as aortic aneurysm Let us know about aortic an ...

The protocols offer a more accurate way to detect atherosclerosis and assess cardiovascular risk before symptoms appear, improving early intervention.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a serious condition that occurs when the large blood vessel bringing blood from the heart to the body called the aorta weakens and bulges. If left untreated, an AAA ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are an important cause of morbidity and, when ruptured, are associated with >80% mortality. Current management decisions are based on assessment of aneurysm diameter ...

Pressure-normalized aortic principal wall strain (ep+/pp, %/mmHg) is a biomechanical parameter for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) stability correlated with aneurysm growth rate. We hypothesized that ...

The objectives of this study are to identify agreement between the transverse measurement of the abdominal aorta using palpation and ultrasound, to compare intra-rater reliability of palpation of the ...

Employing ultrasound (U/S) to quantify AS metrics could have therapeutic application, but technical and regional variation has compromised clinical utility. We hypothesize that integrating ...

Ultrasound can be an important tool when looking for stomach cancer. It's often used along with other tests to confirm the diagnosis and cancer stage.
