A novel technique to measure splanchnic transit time using microbubble ultrasoundMichele Marshall
Intestinal Imaging Centre, St. Mark's Hospital, London, UK
Invest Radiol 40:80-4. 2005..CONCLUSION: Splanchnic transit time may be measured by microbubble injection but is subject to considerable measurement error. Newer microbubbles and imaging methods may allow more reproducible measurements...

Eur Radiol 12:S70-3. 2002..The use of liver-specific microbubble US contrast agents is an exciting development in the detection of HCC in chronic liver disease and may help to rectify some of the shortcomings of US...
Heterogeneous delayed enhancement of the liver after ultrasound contrast agent injection--a normal variantMasahiro Okada
Department of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, , , Berlin, Germany
Ultrasound Med Biol 28:1089-92. 2002..It was observed with two different contrast agents. The cause of the described effect is unknown; it may be related to the formation of large bubbles and vascular entrapment of these bubbles in the liver...

Department of Radiology, Imperial College School of Medicine (Hammersmith Hospital Campus, Du Cane Road, London W12 0NN, UK
Eur J Radiol 41:192-9. 2002..The two likely mechanisms would be damage to the Kupffer cells and or the vascular endothelium, although the relative contribution of these is unclear...
Which continuous US scanning mode is optimal for the detection of vascularity in liver lesions when enhanced with a second generation contrast agent?Raffaella Basilico
Department of Radiology, University of Chieti, Policlinico SS Annunziata, Via dei Vestini, 66013 Chieti, Italy
Eur J Radiol 41:184-91. 2002..A variety of linear and nonlinear scanning modes are now available, but it is unclear which is optimal. A controlled comparison was performed during the infusion of such an agent (SonoVue: Bracco, Milan, Italy)...
Enhancement characteristics of the microbubble agent Levovist: reproducibility and interaction with aspirinRolf A Heckemann
Hammersmith Hospital, Du Cane Road, London W12 0NN, UK
Eur J Radiol 41:179-83. 2002..Aspirin does not have a significant effect on enhancement indices except carotid spectral Doppler decay. We conclude that aspirin is unlikely to potentiate microbubble enhancement, as seen in animal studies...
