**Operator dependent
**Lack of evidence for assessing [[postprandial]] [[gastric]] motility following solid meals
**Limitation of [[ultrasound]] in specific patients who have:
***[[Obesity]]
***[[Gas]] in the [[stomach]]
***Atypical [[anatomy]] of the [[stomach]]

Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
OR
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound  findings associated with [disease name]. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound  may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
==Ultrasound==
*Transabdominal ultrasound is helpful in the diagnosis of gastroparesis. Both 2D or 3D ultrasound can be used to assess gastric emptying function. Compared to the “gold standard” scintigraphy for Gastric Emptying function evaluation, ultrasound is reliable although operator dependent, inexpensive, widely available, radiation-free diagnostic modality. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of gastroparesis includes:
**Prolonged distal and proximal gastric emptying T50
**Larger antral area
**Lower gastric emptying rate
**Fewer antral contractions

Overview

Both 2D and 3D transabdominal ultrasound is helpful in the diagnosis of gastroparesis. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of gastroparesis include prolonged distal and proximal gastric emptying, larger antral area, lower gastric emptying rate, fewer antral contractions.
