Abstract

Shortly before Dreiländertreffen 2008, the Leipzig group would like to review "Dreiländertreffen plus". The term "plus" is used because the 31(st) Dreiländertreffen was held together with the EFSUMB. What did this achieve? What does this mean for us in Davos? Review and evaluation of the contributions indicate a valuable enrichment due to the international participation but show a continued significant lack of large prospective studies to validate the clinical value of sonography. This issue cannot be corrected by efforts of the ultrasound associations to provide excellent and efficient advanced training at the Dreiländertreffen. The most important and striking contributions relate to contrast agent sonography and in particular to the differential diagnosis possibilities for liver tumors (DEGUM multicenter study), monitoring after interventional stent implantation for aortic aneurysms, and the monitoring of angiogenesis inhibition in the treatment of malignant tumors. Since these contributions are highly relevant and have the potential to be applied to guidelines, they require further scientific review and publication. The presidents of the three ultrasound associations in personal union with the presidents of the Dreiländertre...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cancer Imaging

Imaging techniques, including CT and MR, have become essential to tumor detection, diagnosis, and monitoring. Here is the latest research on cancer imaging.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
