Title: [Indications and limitations of ultrasonic investigation in abdominal pathology]. Author: Durante E. Journal: Minerva Med; 1976 Jun 16; 67(30):1931-4. PubMed ID: 934540. Abstract: Investigation of the abdomen by ultrasounds must now be included among routine tools in abdominal diseases.

The limitations are to be sought more in the examiner's interpretational capacities and in the apparatu's limited resolution power rather than in the technique proper.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
