Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate capabilities of pulse inversion harmonic imaging (PIHI) with Levovist in detection of liver metastases compared with conventional ultrasound (US) and helical CT (HCT). One hundred sixty consecutive patients with known malignancies were evaluated by conventional US, PIHI 2 min (40 patients) or 4 min (120 patients) after Levovist injection and HCT. Conspicuity and number of the identified metastatic lesions were evaluated and assessed by statistical analysis (significance p
