Sonography redirects here. For the tactile alphabet called "sonography", see Night writing.
Medical ultrasonography (sonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize muscles and internal organs, their size, structure and any pathological lesions, making them useful for scanning the organs. Obstetric sonography is commonly used during pregnancy.

The choice of frequency is a trade-off between the image spatial resolution and the penetration depth into the patient. Typical diagnostic sonography scanners operate in the frequency range of 2 to 13 megahertz.

Treatment of an extracapsular post-renal biopsy pseudoaneurysm with ultrasound-guided thrombin injection
Mary Eng, Thomas E. Vaughan, Danny Woo, Joseph F. Buell Fri, 23 Oct 2009 14:52:00 -0000
Percutaneous renal biopsy is a convenient method to obtain allograft tissue for histologic evaluation. Vascular complications, such as arteriovenous (AV) fistula and pseudoaneurysm, following renal biopsy are well known, and they usually resolve without further intervention. When symptomatic, they should be treated. We present a patient on chronic anticoagulation who developed a pseudoaneurysm after percutaneous renal biopsy. Applying techniques learned in the management of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm, we treated our patient with ultrasound-guided thrombin injection. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Conservative management of an extensive renal graft subcapsular hematoma arising during living donor nephrectomy. Role of Doppler sonographic posttransplant follow-up
Octavio J. Salgado, Angela M. Vidal, Prospera Semprun, Rafael Garcia Fri, 23 Oct 2009 14:52:00 -0000
We report a case of subcapsular hematoma (SH) of a kidney graft arising during minimal-incision living-donor nephrectomy. SH covered at least two-thirds of the cortical surface. Capsulotomy was not done because it was deemed too risky. In the immediate postoperative period, a rapid deterioration of graft function was observed associated with Doppler sonographic evidence of graft compression. However, in the following days, spontaneous resolution of SH and progressive improvement of Doppler findings was observed, which preceded full recovery of graft function. Conservative management seemed a valid approach of this complication in this case where Doppler sonography proved essential for the follow-up. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2010
Echocardiographic identification of ventricular septal rupture caused by acute stent thrombosis
Scot Garg, Christos V. Bourantas, Simon Thackray, Mohamed F. Alamgir Wed, 21 Oct 2009 16:26:00 -0000
Coronary stenting is an increasingly common procedure. Complications are rare. However, when they do occur, they often require urgent invasive treatment. Investigations that are critical for establishing a diagnosis as well as such guide treatment as a detailed assessment of myocardial morphology and function using transthoracic echocardiography may be overlooked in the haste to treat the patient. We present a case report of subacute drug-eluting stent thrombosis in which a meticulous echocardiographic examination allowed the identification of a ventricular septal rupture, which ultimately modified treatment. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
