Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ultrasound examinations are performed within almost all medical specialties and are of paramount value in clinical medicine and as research tools. Diagnostic ultrasounds as well as ultrasound guidance for biopsy, drainage, and tumor ablation have become an integral part of the clinical setting. The last ten years have seen an increase in new ultrasound techniques such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), elastography techniques, 3D ultrasound, image fusion with ultrasound, and methods for flow visualization such as the vector Doppler method. In terms of the technical aspects, transducer technology has also evolved tremendously. This Special Issue invites submissions of both original and review papers, and technical as well as clinical papers, pertaining to all aspects of ultrasound imaging.

The use of lung ultrasonography in neonates is increasing at a very fast rate. Evidence-based guidelines on the use of lung ultrasound (LU) in neonates and children have been published and well received across the world. However, there remains a lack of standardized curriculum for lung ultrasound training and standards for its application at the bedside. This article focuses on providing a standardized approach to the application of lung ultrasonography in neonates for the common neonatal conditions and how it can be integrated into bedside clinical decision-making.
