Real-time sonoelastography performed in addition to B-mode ultrasound and mammography: improved differentiation of breast lesions?
Elastography in breast lesions showed a higher specificity and a lower sensitivity in comparison with B-mode sonography. Elastography may be beneficial in BI-RADS 3 lesions and in lipomatous involution.
TR(1-41), the cleaved peptide of PAR1, is a more potent stimulant of platelet-endothelial cell adhesion than is thrombin, TRAP, or ADP-EPI, and this adhesion is at least in part mediated by the platelet GPIIb-IIIa receptor.
