Electrocardiography is a study that remains unrivaled in its clinical significance. It is usually performed dynamically and is an important indicator of the state of the heart muscle.
Since the elbow joint is relatively small and superficially located, it is very convenient for examination using the ultrasound method (US). It can even be said that ultrasound is the method of choice for examining this joint due to its ease of implementation, information content and cost-effectiveness.
Recently, arthroscopy of the elbow joint has become widespread and introduced into clinical practice. In addition to purely diagnostic purposes (revision of intra-articular structures, biopsy of the synovial membrane and articular cartilage), various surgical manipulations are performed: removal of intra-articular bodies, sanitation of chondromalacia foci, arthrolysis, etc.
The liver elastometry method allows one to assess the presence of fibrosis by generating vibrational impulses and, based on the results of computer analysis, to judge the change in elastic properties and the rate of fibrosis progression.
Currently, echography is the leading method of obstetrics research. The use of modern equipment allows to establish pregnancy already at the term of 4.5 weeks (counting from the 1st day of the last menstruation).
Echoencephaloscopy (EchoES, synonym - M-method) is a method for detecting intracranial pathology based on echolocation of the so-called sagittal structures of the brain, which normally occupy a median position relative to the temporal bones of the skull. When graphic registration of reflected signals is performed, the study is called echoencephalography.
Echocardiography is the most important technique in the diagnosis of various structural and/or functional changes in the heart. Echocardiography accurately displays anatomical details, it is possible to measure the structures of the heart, and their movements are clearly traced throughout the cardiac cycle.
The cartilage of the auricle develops from six tubercles. If its sections do not tightly merge with each other during development, fistulas (most often a small fistula in front of the tragus) or accessory auricles (cartilaginous bodies located between the corner of the mouth and the tragus) may form.
Ear cleaning may be necessary to remove wax plugs or other unwanted deposits in the ear canal.
