Bowel Perfusion Measured with Dynamic Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound Predicts Treatment Outcome in Patients with Crohn’s Disease
Sævik, Fredrik Eriksen; Nylund, Kim; Hausken, Trygve; Ødegaard, Svein; Gilja, Odd Helge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-02)Background: To improve management of patients with Crohn's disease (CD), objective measurements of the degree of local inflammation in the gastrointestinal wall are needed. Increased microvessel density and perfusion are ... -
Combined endorectal ultrasonography and strain elastography for the staging of early rectal cancer
Waage, Jo Erling Riise; Bach, Simon; Pfeffer, Frank; Leh, Sabine Maria; Havre, Roald Flesland; Ødegaard, Svein; Baatrup, Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-01)Aim: Strain elastography is a novel approach to rectal tumour evaluation. The primary aim of this study was to correlate elastography to pT stages of rectal tumours and to assess the ability of the method to differentiate ... -
Endorectal ultrasonography, strain elastography and MRI differentiation of rectal adenomas and adenocarcinomas.
Waage, Jo Erling Riise; Leh, Sabine Maria; Røsler, Cornelia; Pfeffer, Frank; Bach, Simon; Havre, Roald Flesland; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S.; Ødegaard, Svein; Baatrup, Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02)Aim Strain elastography is a method for recording tissue hardness. Strain in different areas may be compared using strain ratio (SR). The aims of this study were to validate a previously proposed SR cut-off value of 1.25 ...
