echolucent

By contrast, the blood itself and the healthy muscular tissue portion of the blood vessel wall is relatively echolucent, just black circular spaces, in the images.

Hydrosalpinx may be diagnosed using ultrasonography as the fluid filled elongated and distended tubes display their typical echolucent pattern.

Lipid rich carotid artery plaques appear echolucent on ultrasound B-mode images and may be associated with intraplaque haemorrhage.

Of the participants, 38 percent had echolucent plaque, 17 percent had at least one sign of a blood clot and 6 percent had both markers.

Vasa previa is diagnosed with ultrasound when echolucent linear or tubular structures are found overlying the cervix or in close proximity to it.

The markers were signs of blood clots passing into the brain, and a type of carotid plaque called echolucent plaque, which has a higher fat content than other plaque.

Echolucent plaques contain more lipids and less calcification and fibrous tissue than echogenic plaques and intraplaque haemorrhage is significantly related to lipid volume in the plaque (15).
