Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The present animal experimental study showed that intraoperative hepatic ultrasonography using an echo contrast medium can visualize small hepatomas (with a diameter of between 3 and 15 mm) induced in the rat liver, although they were not recognizable with plain ultrasonography. A homogeneous increase in the echogenicity of the liver tissue was achieved by using an echo contrast medium (Echovist) based on galactose microparticles. Selfmade bubble preparations such as those used in echocardiography were far less effective. When the dosage was optimal (0.01-0.003 ml/g liver weight with concentrations of 200 and 300 mg/ml Echovist), homogeneous contrast enhancement of the liver was achieved for at least 10 min after a single bolus injection via all routes of contrast adminstration (hepatic artery, portal vein, bile duct). As a result, hepatomas appeared as hypodense formations (portal vein and bile duct) or as hyperdense zones (hepatic artery). © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
