Aim :Evaluation of anterior abdominal wall masses using high frequency ultrasound to nd out varoius causes of anterior abdominal wall mass and diagnostic accuracy of high frequency ultrasound. Materials and Methods: 50 patients with the clinical manifestations of various anterior abdominal wall lesions were included in this study. All patients were examined the anterior abdominal wall using 7.0-12.0 MHz high-frequency linear transducer with Color Doppler . Results: Incisional hernia was the predominant anterior abdominal wall lesions followed by ventral hernias, lipomas, and hematomas cases. Least common was scar endometriosis,anterior abdominal wall sarcoma. the high-resolution ultrasound had an overall 100% accuracy for abdominal wall lesions. Conclusion: High-frequency sonography is an accurate diagnostic imaging modality in anterior abdominal wall lesions and guide to management aspect.

For the diagnosis and differentiation of chronic cholesistoxolangiitis from the diseases of the biliary system, 20 patients used modern instrumental and laboratory methods. In these methods, excision cholesistorentgenography, retrograde cholangiography, high frequency ultrasound examination, and cholesterol in the blood, manometric tonometry. In the objective examination, patients were disturbed by the pain on the right side of the neck, on the right side of the breast and in the right rib. Dyspeptic symptoms such as lower appetite, nausea, vomiting, and meteorism have been discovered. Dietotherapy, spasmolitics, antibiotics, gallbladder and physiotherapy have also been used in the treatment. Thus, based on the results of our examination, it is recommended that they be used in early diagnosis of chronic cholesistoxolangitis. Key words: cholangiocholecystitis, gallbladder, symptoms, clinical, diagnosis

Background: High-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) is a mobile, radiation-free imaging tool for the diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders. We aim to demonstrate the diagnostic value of dynamic HFUS for undiagnosed lower chest, upper abdomen, and loin pain with this case series. Case series: A cricketer presented with long-standing left-sided dull ache lower chest and upper abdominal pain, aggravated on exertion and leaning forward. His previous laboratory and previous imaging tests were unrevealing. Dynamic HFUS of his left ribs during hooking maneuver demonstrated slipping of the eighth rib over the seventh rib associated with clicking. He also reported tenderness over this region. He was diagnosed as slipping rib syndrome (SRS), and was treated with the eighth nerve block under the HFUS guidance. The second and third cases presented with chronic undiagnosed waxing and waning loin pain despite extensive laboratory and radiological workup. Both patients demonstrated twelfth rib HFUS probe tenderness in sitting position with a specific movement that reproduced the pain during dynamic HFUS study. The diagnosis of twelfth rib syndrome (TRS) was confirmed, and treated successfully with a local intercostal nerve block. Review of the literature: HFUS is the most underutilized imaging tool for the diagnosis of unexplained upper abdominal and lower chest pain syndromes. We identified only a few such reported cases managed with the help of HFUS. Conclusion: The dynamic HFUS is a valuable imaging modality for the undiagnosed lower chest, upper abdominal, or loin pain.

Ultrasound vibro-acoustography is a novel medical imaging modality that combines the high resolution of high-frequency ultrasound with the speckle-free images obtained using low-frequency methods. This imaging modality relies on the non-linear interaction of two high frequency beams at slightly different frequencies. We describe the physics of ultrasound vibro-acoustography and outline a strategy for its modeling, simulation, and optimal design.

Abstract Background Ultrasound was first introduced in clinical dermatology in 1979. Since that time, ultrasound technology has continued to develop along with its popularity and utility. Main text summary Today, high-frequency ultrasound (HFUS), or ultrasound using a frequency of at least 10 megahertz (MHz), allows for high-resolution imaging of the skin from the stratum corneum to the deep fascia. This non-invasive and easy-to-interpret tool allows physicians to assess skin findings in real-time, enabling enhanced diagnostic, management, and surgical capabilities. In this review, we discuss how HFUS fits into the landscape of skin imaging. We provide a brief history of its introduction to dermatology, explain key principles of ultrasonography, and review its use in characterizing normal skin, common neoplasms of the skin, dermatologic diseases and cosmetic dermatology. Conclusion As frequency advancements in ultrasonography continue, the broad applications of this imaging modality will continue to grow. HFUS is a fast, safe and readily available tool that can aid in diagnosing, monitoring and treating dermatologic conditions by providing more objective assessment measures.
