Clinical Trial: Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound, Endoleak Detection Following EVAR v1.3

Study Status: Recruiting
Recruit Status: Recruiting
Study Type: Observational




Official Title: Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Endoleak Detection Compared To Time-Resolved Computer Tomography Angiography in High Risk Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) Surveillance Pat

Brief Summary:

A single site cross-sectional comparison of paired diagnostic imaging modalities.

This study will show the sensitivity and specificity of CEUS in detecting the various types of endoleaks, in comparison to tCTA, following EVAR. It will collect data to allow comparison of diagnostic accuracy across modalities including CDU, CEUS and tCTA. It will collect time taken to perform the various types of scan, to allow healthcare costs to be calculated for each imaging modality.
