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
- Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of inguinal hernia. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of inguinal hernia include:[1][2]
- Herniated bowel contents may show peristalsis
- Herniated fat appears hyperechoic
- Reducibility and bowel viability is identified by peristalsis or mucosal blood flow
- The normal intraabdominal contents move inferior with the Valsalva maneuver
