Pancreatic Ultrasound

Pancreatic ultrasonography (synonym: ultrasound of the pancreas) is a noninvasive diagnostic procedure used in radiology and internal medicine to detect pathologic (disease) processes of the pancreas. Sonographic evaluation of the pancreas can be performed using a variety of techniques. Both conventional abdominal sonography and endoscopic sonography allow, to varying degrees, assessment of the anatomic structures … Pancreatic Ultrasound

Hepatobiliary Sequence Scintigraphy

Hepatobiliary sequence scintigraphy (HBSS) is a nuclear medicine procedure used to visualize the functionality of the liver and biliary system. The liver is the central metabolic organ of the human organism. It is supplied by two different circulations. The blood supply is provided by the liver‘s own arteries (A. hepatica propria) and by the portal … Hepatobiliary Sequence Scintigraphy

Liver Blood Pool Scintigraphy

Liver blood pool scintigraphy (liver blood pool scintigraphy) is a nuclear medicine diagnostic procedure for imaging liver perfusion (blood flow). The liver is the central metabolic organ of the human organism. It has important synthesis and metabolization functions in carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism (sugar, protein and fat metabolism) and thus plays a crucial role … Liver Blood Pool Scintigraphy

Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreaticography

Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography (MRCP) (synonym: MR cholangiopancreaticography) is a noninvasive (not penetrating the body) imaging technique for visualizing the biliary and pancreatic ducts. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), examination protocols can be specially adapted so that the liver, bile ducts, and pancreas can be better visualized and consequently the examination is called MRCP. MRCP can … Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreaticography

Liver Ultrasound (Liver Sonography)

Liver ultrasonography (synonyms: ultrasound of the liver; liver ultrasound) is a noninvasive diagnostic procedure in radiology and internal medicine that can be used to clarify pathologic (pathological) processes as a routine examination or when a specific question is raised. Sonographic evaluation of the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts is usually the primary diagnostic procedure in … Liver Ultrasound (Liver Sonography)
