Overview
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name].
OR
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
OR
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name]. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
Ultrasound
- Abdominal ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of Addison's disease associated with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) type 1 and type 2 (APS type 3 does not involve adrenal glands). Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of Addison's disease include:[1][2]
- Hypoaldosteronism from chronic kidney disease may show the following features on ultrasound:
- Irregularly shrunken adrenal glands
- Adrenal nodules
- Signs of calcium deposits
