Abstract:
Ultrasonography of 70 cases of palpable neck masses are analyzed. On the basis of histological diagnoses the cases are put into groups of cysts, tumors and other lesions of the neck. According to this grouping the aetiological factors are also discussed (congenital lesions: mainly cysts, lesions of the salivary glands and the parotid gland, thyroid and parathyroid diseases, vascular lesions). The diagnostic value of ultrasonography is calculated in view of the morphological signs of a given lesion. The specificity, sensitivity and the accuracy of ultrasonography in our material supports the view that in the differential diagnostics of neck masses ultrasonography is a useful, simple and effective tool.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
