Full textAbstract:
Ultrasound assists nephrologists in many situations. It is essential in excluding obstruction as the cause of acute kidney injury, but it also helps to reach other diagnoses and guides interventions such as renal biopsy and placement of lines for dialysis and evaluating dialysis fistulae. It is the imaging technique of choice in assessing renal transplants. It has advantages: it does not involve ionizing radiation, allows rapid real-time imaging, is relatively inexpensive, and can be performed at the patient’s bedside. Ultrasound is the primary imaging modality in paediatric radiology for most conditions, largely because it does not involve ionizing radiation. The strengths and limitations of ultrasound need to be understood to ensure that the technique is applied appropriately.

Full textAbstract:
Ultrasound is an invaluable tool in the diagnosis and management of many urological disorders. It has the advantages of not involving ionizing radiation, allowing rapid real time imaging and being relatively inexpensive. It can also be performed at the patient’s bedside if necessary. There are limitations, however, and it is best used as an adjunct to clinical assessment, often alongside other complementary imaging modalities. While many ultrasound studies are undertaken by urological surgeons, it is often performed by imaging specialists; close liaison between these two groups is essential. A brief, clinically relevant, introduction to ultrasound physics is included and the use of Doppler techniques and ultrasound contrast agents will be discussed. It is not possible to cover all the urological conditions for which ultrasound is used in one chapter, so some recommended texts are included in the reading list for further study.

Full textAbstract:
Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) is rapidly becoming a standard part of many rheumatologists' daily clinical practice. MSUS is safe, increasingly widely available, relatively low cost, non-invasive, and hence very acceptable to the patient. Current problems with availability of training, mentoring, and accreditation procedures need to be overcome for MSUS to reach its full potential for rheumatologists. MSUS is capable of improving clinical diagnosis and the accuracy of intervention. MSUS is more sensitive than clinical examination in the detection of synovitis and effusion and is capable of rapid targeted assessment of widely spaced joints coupled with clinical correlation. MSUS has advantages over other imaging modalities; the ability to display dynamic real-time movement makes it the imaging modality of choice for tendon problems. It is significantly more sensitive than plain radiology in the demonstration of early erosive changes, and although its sensitivity is less than that of MRI for the detection of erosions it is far more practical, timely, and available. The combination of sensitivity in detection of synovitis, tenosynovitis, and erosions makes it an ideal imaging modality in the context of an early arthritis clinic. Power Doppler has been shown to be an effective way of evaluating synovitis and hence is of value in early diagnosis and monitoring of inflammatory arthritides. The accuracy of placement of local injection therapies is enhanced by MSUS, and it significantly increases the diagnostic success rate of aspiration of joints and bursas. The flexibility of ultrasound as a tool for rheumatologists is shown by its application in the assessment of vasculitides, peripheral nerve pathology, salivary glands, and skin lesions.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter reviews the anatomy and ultrasound-guided techniques of various shoulder injections, including the glenohumeral joints, subacromial subdeltoid bursa, long head of biceps, and acromioclavicular joint. Ultrasonography is a very useful tool allowing accurate localization of the various target structures for shoulder injections and real-time guidance of the needle insertion. A good understanding of the anatomy and sonoanatomy is of paramount importance in performing the ultrasound-guided injections.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses the basics of ultrasound wave emission and capture, probe selection, image-optimization techniques, artifact generation, and potential adverse biological effects. The rapid improvement of ultrasound image processing allows a dynamic exam with a reliable real-time assessment of the target tissue, the needle trajectory, and the injectate deposition. This, combined with ease of portability and absence of radiation, means the use of ultrasound guidance in regional anesthesia and interventional pain management is rapidly expanding. Basic understanding of ultrasound knobology principles is mandated by most societies using ultrasound technology and is essential for optimal use.

Full textAbstract:
Successful central neuraxial blockade requires entry into the epidural or intrathecal space, and is contingent on the ability to guide a needle into the desired interlaminar space between adjacent vertebrae. Ultrasonography of the spine has been shown to be an effective tool for guiding epidural and spinal anesthesia. The use of ultrasound to central neuraxial blockade can broadly be divided into either preprocedural ultrasound imaging to delineate the underlying anatomy, or real-time ultrasound imaging of the needle as it is advanced toward the target. This chapter focuses only on preprocedural ultrasound imaging of the thoracic and lumbar spine, as real-time ultrasound-guided central neuraxial blockade is a challenging technique that requires much more investigation before it can be recommended for routine use. There is ample evidence to support the utility of ultrasound imaging of the spine in facilitating central neuraxial blockade. It is particularly useful in patients with challenging surface landmarks.

Full textAbstract:
Ultrasound provides direct visualization and imaging of various soft tissues without radiation exposure. Thus, it is a very appealing modality in neck injections, with the magnitude of critical soft-tissue structures compacted in a very vascular area. Moreover, ultrasound imaging allows real-time needle advancement and monitoring the spread of injectate, which improves the accuracy of the block and minimizes the risk of intravascular injection. This chapter reviews the feasibility and safety of the ultrasound-guided approach. It also provides a new insight into the technique and why some practitioners prefer an “extraforaminal” nerve root approach rather than the traditional “transforaminal” epidural approach.

Full textAbstract:
Ultrasonography (US) is a safe and cheap imaging technique which in experienced hands allows for a multiplanar and multisite high-resolution assessment of both morphological and structural features of bone, cartilage, and intra- or periarticular soft tissues. This chapter describes the main applications of US in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) and crystal-related arthropathies. Imaging plays a key role for diagnosis, prognosis, and follow-up in patients with OA. Although conventional radiography is still the gold standard imaging technique in daily clinical practice, US has been revealed to be capable of detecting a wide spectrum of otherwise undetectable details, including cartilage damage, joint effusion, synovial hypertrophy, osteophyte formation, and meniscal protrusion. Crystal visualization by US has the potential to change the diagnostic approach in patients with suspicion of crystal-related arthropathies. The double-contour sign, due to urate crystal deposits on the chondrosynovial interface of the hyaline cartilage, is a highly specific finding for gout as well as the hyperechoic spots within the hyaline cartilage for calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease. The potential applications of US in the management of patients with OA and crystal-related arthropathies are not only limited to diagnosis and monitoring. Finally, US guidance allows the real-time visualization of the needle moving through different tissues and reaching the target to aspirate and/or inject. The correct placement of the tip of the needle plays a key role in improving efficacy and reducing side effects of the injection.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter reviews the diagnosis and treatment of facet joint pain. Fluoroscopic guidance is commonly used to optimize treatment outcomes. The only reliable way to identify a painful facet joint is with image-guided blockade of either the medial branch innervating the joint or the joint itself. Although computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound have been shown to provide reliable landmarks for accurate needle placement, these modalities have limitations. The risks of CT include increased radiation exposure, cost, and an inability to perform real-time contrast injection. While ultrasound provides a convenient and inexpensive way to anesthetize the facet joints or medial branch nerves innervating them, it is unreliable in obese patients, is not as sensitive for detecting intravascular uptake as digital substraction or real-time contrast injection under fluoroscopy, and cannot be reliably used to place an electrode parallel to the course of the nerve, which has been shown to enhance lesion size.

Full textAbstract:
Functional imaging by modern echocardiography offers a variety of methods to assess regional and global myocardial function beyond classic dimension, volume and ejection fraction measurements. This chapter shows how various modalities of Doppler echocardiography can be used for assessment of valves, haemodynamics, and coronary flow reserve. It also provides information on myocardial function can be extracted from echo images using a tissue Doppler or speckle tracking approach. 3Dechocardiography provides real-time 3D images of the heart in motion. Various types of examination and quantification are also shown. A brief explanation of contrast imaging is included as well as practical considerations such as administration protocols and the safety of ultrasound contrast.

Full textAbstract:
Regional anaesthesia is now extremely safe in experienced hands. The vast majority of upper and lower limb procedures can now be performed with either a peripheral regional block alone or in combination with a general anaesthetic. Neuraxial blocks can provide reliable postoperative pain relief for operations on the trunk and lower limbs. There is no consensus on the maximum safe dose of local anaesthetics. It is important therefore to use a minimum optimal dose of a local anaesthetic for any nerve block to reduce the risk of toxicity and to improve the success rate. Adjuncts, such as clonidine and dexamethasone, can prolong the duration of the block. Advances in nerve localization methods and block needles have further improved the safety of nerve blocks. There is increasing evidence to show that ultrasound is superior to peripheral nerve stimulation for identifying nerves. Ultrasound also helps in real-time visualization of the spread of the local anaesthetic. Consent, sedation, and support from non-anaesthetic staff play a key role in the success of regional anaesthesia, especially in awake patients. Although serious complications from nerve blocks are uncommon, direct nerve injury is perhaps the most serious complication. Fortunately, these symptoms in the overwhelming majority resolve within a year. This chapter covers the history, factors affecting local anaesthetics, role of adjuncts, nerve localization techniques, and complications of regional anaesthesia. Finally, some suggestions to improve the success and safety of peripheral nerve blocks are discussed.
