Abstract From February 2014 to November 2014 inclusive, (200) patients presented for breast imaging and of these, (100) formed the study group , All patients in the study group were imaged with breast ultrasound. There was inclusive and exclusive data due to the lack of required information. The appearance of specific types of breast carcinoma has been studied. Although appearances vary greatly, some patterns are typical,, Mucin-containing carcinomas are often circumscribed but may have irreg...
ABSTRACT This was a descriptive and analytic study ,the main objective of this study was to study shoulder joint pain using magnetic resonance imaging. The study was conduct at Alamal Daignostic center in Khartoum state which equipped by high guality machine Philips 1.5 tesla closed machine. A total of 50 patients (29 male,21 female) aged from (20 years to 70 years) weight between (60 kg to 99 kg ), all those complaining of persistent shoulder pain most of them were under gone routine plain s...
Abstract Breast fibroadenomas are common benign breast tumors and detailed descriptions of their sonographic appearances are necessary for differential diagnosis from other benign lesions or breast cancers. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the sonographic criteria of breast fibroadenoma. The data was collected from Khartoum breast center. A total of 50 women their ages between 17-36 years with palpable breast lump diagnosed by histopathology as fibroadenoma were scanned by ult...
This is a descriptive study to estimate the normal size of the uterus in Sudanese women and to compare the same variables amongst nulliparous vs multiparous ones. It was carried out in Khartoum state, during the period from September to October 2018. The study is done for 50 women age between 20-50 years 28 of women (56%) were nulliparous and 22 women (44%) were multiparous and excluded womenwith uterine pathology, pregnancy and those below the age of 20 and above 50 years. The data is ...
The aim of the study was to determine the role of ultrasound in relationship between placental location and fetal gender in second and third trimester of pregnancy. An analytic, observational study was performed at multi-centers and hospitals in Khartoum state, during the period from (June-Sep2016). The study excluded congenital abnormal uterus, multiple pregnancies in normal uterus and fetal demises, congenital fetal anomalies, technical factors make fetal gender not clear. The study...
This is adescriptive study conducted in Bashaer hospital Khartoum city(Sudan).from may to August 2016. The main aim to assess the causes and incidence of . abortion using U/S A total of (50) patients were scanned using TRAultrasound machine, all of them suffering from abortion. Study was reveled that the highest incidence of abortion was incomplete abortion ( 56%) followed by complete abortion ( 24%) and then missed and threatened .abortion (10%) equally Data was collated using Data ...
The purpose of this study to estimate the correlation between placenta thickness (PT) and fetal age(FA) in normal pregnant women. The study was done on 50 normal pregnant in third trimester. The data used in the study collected in Saudi Maternity Hospital in Omdurman during 2016. The used ultrasound machine with a frequency 3.5MHz convex probe.The results of the study showed that there is a positive correlation between placenta thickness and gestational age (GA) .It was found that the p...
ABSTRACT Background: There has been an increase in caesarean sections due to complications, which include malpresentation of foetus. Despite the good outcomes of present day caesarean sections, expectant mothers diagnosed with breech presentation still experience great turmoil. The risk factors provided by literature for the occurrence of breech presentation are many and varied. However, some factors such as maternal age and number of pregnancies are common to all. Aim: The aim of the researc...
ABSTRACT Background: Every cell in the body depends on the thyroid hormones for regulation of their metabolism. About 5-10% of thyroid nodules are suggested to be malignant. Many philosophies explain myoma growth through different pathways and most make mention of estrogen as a contributor. Estrogen is known to have influence on thyroid function, and suspected to have a role in formation of thyroid nodules. Estrogen receptors have been found in normal and neoplastic thyroid tissue and have in...

ABSTRACT Background: Ultrasonography is now the preferred imaging modality in diagnosing thyroid pathology because it is widely available, affordable, and easy to use. Apart from detecting more nodules than palpation, it is able to classify the nodules and also measure thyroid volume. Thyroid pathology detection is up to 8% by palpation, 13 to 65% by ultrasound, and up to 50% by autopsy studies, Aim: The aim of this study was to sonographically determine the prevalence of thyroid patholog...
ABSTRACT Background: Earlier investigations have demonstrated that the accuracy of foetal weight estimation is significantly higher if several ultrasonic foetal parameters are measured, because the total body mass depends on the size of foetal head, abdominal circumference and femur length. Aim: This study aimed to determine the best ultrasound regression models that use the common foetal biometric measurements in predicting foetal weight for normal singleton pregnancies in ClearVue 350 ultr...
ABSTRACT Background: Gestational age (GA) assessment is an essential tool used to monitor the proper growth and development of fetuses. Obstetricians therefore depend on estimated GA to correctly diagnose either pre-term or post-term labour and to distinguish between preterm birth and intrauterine growth restriction. Aim: The aim of study was to evaluate the accuracy of symphysis-fundal height (SFH) in comparison to ultrasound scan for the assessment of gestational age. Methodology: The cross...
