Standardizing quality criteria for liver ultrasound with contrast
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial gathers expert doctors to create standard quality rules for liver ultrasound exams that use contrast dye. If you're a very experienced ultrasound doctor, your opinion could help shape future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have at least 6 years of experience doing ultrasounds in internal medicine, radiology, or a similar field.
- You must have personally performed at least 5,000 ultrasound exams.
- You must have completed structured training in contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).
- You must perform at least 800 ultrasound exams each year in your regular practice.
- You must either do at least 100 CEUS exams per year or have done more than 700 CEUS exams in total.
- You must regularly attend ultrasound meetings, case reviews, or quality checks at your hospital.
- You must be scientifically involved in CEUS—meaning you have published at least one paper or taught CEUS courses.

This study compares two methods for reading contrast-enhanced ultrasound images to tell whether new liver spots after liver cancer treatment are cancer or not. If you have a new liver lesion after prior treatment, this scan may help doctors decide your next steps more accurately.
This study uses a special ultrasound with contrast to help tell apart two conditions that cause high blood pressure in the liver: porto-sinusoidal vascular disorder (a rare disease of the liver's small blood vessels) and cirrhosis (scarring of the liver). The test may help avoid the need for a liver biopsy.
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast dye to get a clearer picture of bladder cancer before any treatment. It aims to improve how doctors determine the stage of the cancer, which helps guide the best treatment plan.
This trial tests a remote, automated ultrasound system that may allow you to get an ultrasound exam without the doctor being in the same room. The goal is to see if it works as well as a standard ultrasound and is safe to use.
This study tests a head-mounted device that guides doctors remotely while they learn or practice a focused ultrasound exam called eFAST, which is used in emergencies. It aims to see if this technology helps training doctors perform the exam correctly, which could lead to better training methods.
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast dye to get a clearer picture of liver spots that other scans (CT, MRI, or PET) couldn't fully identify. The goal is to see if this ultrasound can help doctors make a more accurate diagnosis.
