Figure 6.

A 52-year-old male with squamous cell carcinoma in his left lung. A, MFI showed the microvascular represented as a “dead wood” pattern 19 seconds after injection of SonoVue; the target of biopsy was the most enhanced areas of tumor on CEUS (ellipse). B, Pathological result demonstrated that there were scattered and large neovascularization in the lesion and the average of MVD and MD was 20/HP and 21.6 μm, respectively (anti-CD34 antibody, original magnification x200). CEUS = contrast-enhanced ultrasound, MD = microvascular diameter, MFI = microflow imaging, MVD = microvascular density.
