Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is an established method for surveillance after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). According to study data, it is at least equivalent to CT angiography (CTA). The time requirements for the vascular surgeon should not be underestimated. The new technology is now available from well-known manufacturers and high-end devices. However, it has not been implemented yet due to cost and time requirements, despite significant advantages for the patient: no nephrotoxicity, no iodine-containing contrast media, and no radiation exposure.
