    How to perform shear wave elastography. Part II
    (2022-05-25) Ferraioli, Giovanna; Barr, Richard G; Farrokh, André; Radzina, Maija; Dong, Yi; Cui, Xin Wu; Rocher, Laurence; Cantisani, Vito; Polito, Eleonora; D'Onofrio, Mirko; Roccarina, Davide; Yamashita, Yasunobu; Dighe, Manjiri K; Fodor, Daniela; Dietrich, Christoph F; Department of Radiology
    Recently a series of papers was introduced describing on "how to do" certain techniques. More specifically we published on how to perform strain imaging using the transcutaneous and endoscopic ultrasound approach and shear wave elastography (SWE). In the first part we describe how to optimize the examination technique, discussing normal values, pitfalls, artefacts and specific tips for applying SWE to specific organs (liver, breast, thyroid, salivary glands) as part of a diagnostic US examination. In part II, the use of SWE in the pancreas, spleen, kidney, prostate, scrotum, musculoskeletal system, lymph nodes and future developments are discussed.

    (2019-02) Dietrich, Christoph F.; Hoffmann, Beatrice; Abramowicz, Jacques; Badea, Radu; Braden, Barbara; Cantisani, Vito; Chammas, Maria C.; Cui, Xin Wu; Dong, Yi; Gilja, Odd Helge; Hari, Roman; Nisenbaum, Harvey; Nicholls, Delwyn; Nolsøe, Christian Pállson; Nürnberg, Dieter; Prosch, Helmut; Radzina, Maija; Recker, Florian; Sachs, Alexander; Saftoiu, Adrian; Serra, Andreas; Sweet, Linda; Vinayak, Sudhir; Westerway, Sue; Chou, Yi Hong; Blaivas, Michael; Rīga Stradiņš University
    The introduction of ultrasound into medical student education is well underway in many locations around the world, but is still in its infancy or has yet to begin in others. Proper incorporation of ultrasound education into medical training requires planning and resources, both capital and human. In this article, we discuss the state of the art of ultrasound in medical education throughout the world, as well as various methodologies utilized to improve student education and to incorporate ultrasound into every facet of training. Experiences from various educational systems and available evidence regarding the impact of ultrasound education are summarized. Representing multiple societies and specialties throughout the world, we discuss established modern as well as novel education structures and different successful approaches.

    Medical student ultrasound education, a WFUMB position paper, Part II. A consensus statement by ultrasound societies
    (2020-05-11) Hoffmann, Beatrice; Blaivas, Michael; Abramowicz, Jacques S.; Nielsen, Michael Bachmann; Badea, Radu; Braden, Barbara; Cantisani, Vito; Chammas, Maria C.; Cui, Xin Wu; Dong, Yi; Gilja, Odd Helge; Hari, Roman; Lamprecht, Hein; Nisenbaum, Harvey; Nolsøe, Christian Pállson; Nürnberg, Dieter; Prosch, Helmut; Radzina, Maija; Recker, Florian; Sachs, Alexander; Saftoiu, Adrian; Serra, Andreas; Vinayak, Sudhir; Westerway, Sue; Chou, Yi Hong; Dietrich, Christoph F.; Department of Radiology
    Ultrasound is becoming a fundamental first-line diagnostic tool for most medical specialties and an innovative tool to teach anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology to undergraduate and graduate students. However, availability of structured training programs during medical school is lagging behind and many physicians still acquire all their ultrasound skills during postgraduate training. There is wide variation in medical student ultrasound education worldwide. Sharing successful educational strategies from early adopter medical schools and learning from leading education programs should advance the integration of ultrasound into the university medical school curricula. In this overview, we present current approaches and suggestions by ultrasound societies concerning medical student education throughout the world. Based on these examples, we formulate a consensus statement with suggestions on how to integrate ultrasound teaching into the preclinical and clinical medical curricula.

    Thyroid ultrasound : State of the art part 1 - Thyroid ultrasound reporting and diffuse thyroid diseases
    (2017) Dighe, Manjiri; Barr, Richard; Bojunga, Jörg; Cantisani, Vito; Chammas, Maria Cristina; Cosgrove, David; Cui, Xin Wu; Dong, Yi; Fenner, Franziska; Radzina, Maija; Vinayak, Sudhir; Xu, Jun Mei; Dietrich, Christoph F.
    Accurate differentiation of focal thyroid nodules (FTL) and thyroid abnormalities is pivotal for proper diagnostic and therapeutic work-up. In these two part articles, the role of ultrasound techniques in the characterization of FTL and evaluation of diffuse thyroid diseases is described to expand on the recently published World Federation in Ultrasound and Medicine (WFUMB) thyroid elastography guidelines and review how this guideline fits into a complete thyroid ultrasound exam.
