| description | Nakaraj Pluetrattanabha,1 Thanyaporn Direksunthorn2 1Surat Skin-Hair-Nails Clinic, Surat Thani, Thailand; 2School of Medicine, Walailak University, Nakhon Si Thammarat, ThailandCorrespondence: Thanyaporn Direksunthorn, School of Medicine, Walailak University, 222 Thaiburi, Thasala, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand, Email Thanyaporn.di@wu.ac.thAbstract: The superficial soft tissue lesions are commonly discovered during routine clinical practice. However, their diagnosis can be challenging. Non-invasive imaging can differentiate the features of various superficial soft tissue lesions. Moreover, imaging-based evaluations can help guide treatment and surgical planning, evaluate tumor extension, and perform staging and follow-up. Novel imaging modalities and techniques have been developed to improve diagnostic performance and differentiate between benign and malignant lesions in vivo. The authors reviewed the literature to determine how ultrasound has been utilized to diagnose and treat superficial soft tissue lesions.Keywords: soft tissue lesion, ultrasound, Doppler ultrasound |
