Article Abstract
Ultrasound can be an effective alternative to computed tomography for surveillance following endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Recently, ultrasound fusion imaging with the real-time navigation system was introduced. Here we described 3 patients who underwent post-EVAR surveillance using this novel technique. Complete coregistration was achieved in all patients. The origin of left renal artery was selected for the target of coregistration. Ultrasound fusion imaging was useful to differentiate the confusing lesion and to evaluate the complete resolution of endoleak and newly developed delayed endoleak. Ultrasound fusion image with real-time navigation system can be a feasible imaging tool for post-EVAR surveillance.

ObjectiveTo determine the effectiveness of bilateral decompression combined with a unilateral transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion approach in centralizing a lordotic cage and preventing contralateral radiculopathy by ensuring equal foraminal elevation.MethodsThis is a retrospective cohort study based on clinical records and radiological data. Eighty-seven patients diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis at L3-S1 levels underwent bilateral decompression and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion between 2017 and 2022.

Objective: This study examines the efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided paravertebral nerve block (PVB) with and without MRI fusion for chronic back pain management.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 20 patients, split into US-MRI fusion-guided (IF group, = 10) and traditional US-guided (U group, = 10) PVB, was conducted. Pain intensity, gabapentin dosage, procedure duration, and treatment efficacy were compared using numerical rating scale (NRS) scores.

Abstract: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common hereditary heart disease and is the leading cause of sudden cardiac death in adolescents. Septal hypertrophy (SH) and apical hypertrophy (AH) are two common types. The former is characterized by abnormal septal myocardial thickening and the latter by left ventricular apical hypertrophy, both of which significantly increase the risk of heart failure, arrhythmias, and other serious complications.

Accurate identification of fetal torso ultrasound planes is essential in pre-natal examinations, as it plays a critical role in the early detection of severe fetal malformations and this process is heavily dependent on the clinical expertise of health care providers. However, the limited number of medical professionals skilled at identification and the complexity of fetal plane screening underscore the need for efficient diagnostic support tools. Clinicians often encounter challenges such as image artifacts and the intricate nature of fetal planes, which require adjustments to image gain and contrast to obtain clearer diagnostic information.

The diagnosis of brain tumors is pivotal for effective treatment, with MRI serving as a commonly used non-invasive diagnostic modality in clinical practices. Fundamentally, brain tumor diagnosis is a type of pattern recognition task that requires the integration of information from multi-modal MRI images. However, existing fusion strategies are hindered by the scarcity of multi-modal imaging samples.
