Atlas of Ultrasound Images illustrating EFSUMB guidelines and recommendations (to help in their application in clinical practice)

An image can say more than a thousand words; and an image plus an adequate number of words provides the most effective information. This is why EFSUMB decided to set up an atlas of images to illustrate its Clinical Recommendations and Guidelines, which as of 2013 include a variety of contrast enhanced ultrasound and elastographic applications. These recommendations have been regularly published in Ultraschall in der Medizin / European Journal of Ultrasound in recent years (and can be dowloaded for free from the EFSUMB website) and will be updated by future editions; however, due to printed space limits, such articles never include clinical images.

In this part of the EFSUMB website you can now find pictures and videoclips illustrating the typical patterns of most of the ultrasound findings described in the guidelines, whose display is indexed according to the structure of the guidelines, to allow an easy and rapid access directly to the topic of your interest.

We are confident that visiting these web pages will be a highly fruitful time for your professional activity, whatever the field of ultrasound applications you are involved in.

The EFSUMB Atlas is work in progress and we cordially invite contributions of images and video's using the submission template which can be accessed here.
