Value of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in Differential Diagnosis of Focal Liver Lesions

https://doi.org/10.24835/1607-0763-905

Abstract

The article discusses the modern possibilities of identifying inflammatory bowel diseases using methods of radiation diagnosis. Methods of radiation diagnostics help determine the stages of inflammatory bowel diseases helping in timely diagnosis, prescription and timely correction of therapy. The use of an adequate amount of diagnostic measures allows early detection of complications requiring immediate surgical treatment, such as fibrostenotic lesions, fistulae, and abscesses.

The sources of the review were publications included in peer-reviewed databases E-library, PubMed, GoogleScholar, conference materials and non-indexed publications, including web pages of conferences and repositories of scientific data from universities.
