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

• There are no echocardiography findings associated with insulinoma
• Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of insulinoma. Findings on a transabdominal ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of insulinoma include:
  • Low echogenicity
  • Hypervascularity on the Doppler

• An ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of malignant insulinoma, which include:
  • liver metastasis
