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].

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [PNH]. However, an ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [PNH], like portal vein or splenic vein thrombosis. But, ultrasound is less sensitive than CT or MRI for detecting venous thrombosis.
