Junction jump sign: a useful adjunct to the precise positioning of the catheter tip during endovenous thermal ablation (2011)
Journal Article
Samuel, N., Wallace, T., Smith, G. E., Shahin, Y., & Chetter, I. C. (2011). Junction jump sign: a useful adjunct to the precise positioning of the catheter tip during endovenous thermal ablation. Ultrasound, 19(2), 97-98. https://doi.org/10.1258/ult.2011.011006

Duplex ultrasound imaging plays a key role in the increasingly popular, minimally invasive endothermal treatment of varicose veins. Accurate placement of the echodense tip of endovenous catheter distal to the site of junctional incompetence is by far...

Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours (2011)
Journal Article
Samuel, N., Smith, G., Wolstenhulme, S., & Chetter, I. (2011). Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours. Ultrasound, 19(1), 26-30. https://doi.org/10.1258/ult.2010.010037

Carotid body tumour (CBT) is a rare neoplasm that usually presents as an asymptomatic slow-growing neck mass at the carotid bifurcation. Due to these benign attributes, CBTs often go undiagnosed for a few years before a lateral neck mass becomes clin... Read More about Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours.

Recognition of inflammatory aneurysms in abdominal aortic aneurysm screening and surveillance (2010)
Journal Article
Smith, G. E., Samuel, N., Wolstenholme, S., Akomolafe, A. B., & Chetter, I. C. (2010). Recognition of inflammatory aneurysms in abdominal aortic aneurysm screening and surveillance. Ultrasound, 18(4), 186-190. https://doi.org/10.1258/ult.2010.010035

Inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysms (IAAAs) account for 3-10% of all abdominal aortic aneurysms and are characterized by a thickened aneurysmal wall, with extensive fibrosis and adhesions. Ultrasound remains the investigation of choice for diagno... Read More about Recognition of inflammatory aneurysms in abdominal aortic aneurysm screening and surveillance.
