Ultrasound with contrast for children's belly problems
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests if a special ultrasound dye is safe and useful in children to look at tumors, injury, or fluid in the belly when other tests haven't given clear answers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 29 days and 18 years old
- Your child has a known or suspected problem in the belly area (like a mass, injury from an accident, fluid buildup, or unclear symptoms)
- Your child does NOT have an allergy to sulfur hexafluoride (the contrast dye) or its ingredients
- Your child does NOT have certain heart, lung, blood, or breathing conditions listed as unsafe
- Your child does NOT have severe liver or kidney disease

This study looks at how well an abdominal ultrasound test (FAST) works for children who come to the emergency department after a serious blunt injury to the belly or torso. The goal is to help doctors find dangerous internal bleeding or organ injury quickly and safely.
This trial checks whether a special ultrasound (with contrast) can help doctors evaluate blunt abdominal injuries in children. It may reduce the need for rushed decisions by improving how internal injuries are seen quickly and safely.
This trial tests a contrast agent called Sonazoid, which is used during an ultrasound to get clearer pictures of the liver. It is for children and teens who have one or more spots in the liver that need to be checked. The goal is to see if Sonazoid is safe and works well for children.
This trial tests a new, detailed ultrasound technique that uses a contrast agent (called Definity) to get clearer images of a suspicious area before a biopsy. It may help doctors better see the blood flow in the lesion, which could improve diagnosis.
This trial uses a special ultrasound with a contrast agent to get clearer images of breast lumps. It may help doctors decide if a lump needs a biopsy.
This trial uses a special ultrasound technique to create detailed images of blood flow in the kidneys of children with congenital kidney and urinary tract conditions. It aims to improve how doctors assess blockages without needing radiation.
