超声自动容积扫描系统在乳腺组织以外病变中应用的研究进展

Research progress on automated volume scanner system ultrasonography in disease diagnosis besides breast diseases

超声自动容积扫描系统(automatic volume scanning system,AVSS)作为一项应用于乳腺组织病变的超声诊断技术,近年来广泛应用于乳腺病变以外的浅表组织疾病诊断中。AVSS独有的冠状面成像技术为肢体血管、神经、体表肿块、疝等浅表组织疾病的诊治提供了更多的可能性。本文就AVSS的成像特点、研究进展及局限性等方面作一综述。

In recent years, automated volume scanner system (AVSS) ultrasonography is widely applied in superifcial tissue diseases besides breast diseases, which is designed for diagnosis of breast diseases originally. The characteristic images in the coronal plane of AVSS offer more details for the diagnosis of superifcial tissue diseases including blood vessels, nerves, superifcial soft tissue masses, hernia and so on. Here, the imaging characteristics, research progress and limitation of AVSS are reviewed.
