In the last decade, innovative ultrasound technology has become the primary imaging method in Gastroenterology. Compared to other imaging techniques (e. g., computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging), conventional ultrasound images have the disadvantage of a restricted field-of-view (width), thus producing images that are not always easy to read. During the examination, the many mosaic-like single images obtained in real-time sonography must be mentally pieced together by the user, in order to obtain a complex 3-dimensional picture of the anatomical structure and its surrounding tissue. The extended field-of-view of the Panoramic Imaging technique is a useful addition to conventional diagnostic ultrasound since it provides the enhanced overview required for exact topography of surrounding structures. This is especially true for the Power Mode Panoramic Imaging technique that allows the trading of vessels over greater distances, e.g., in the extremities. Thus, accuracy and reproducibility of measurements in the examination of larger structures and organs has improved. A clearer representation of these anatomical structures increases understanding and acceptance by referring clinicians. An exact diagnosis based on ultrasound imaging will certainly result in cost savings in health-care, since the use of further imaging methods (and therefore the total examination time) may be reduced.
