    Ultrasonography accurately assesses parotid tumor size, cystic or solid nature, and malignancy potential. This safe, rapid imaging technique complements surgical exploration for parotid lesions.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Context:

    • Parotid tumors present diagnostic challenges.
    • Accurate pre-operative assessment is crucial for patient management.
    • Ultrasonography is a widely available imaging modality.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasonography in characterizing parotid tumors.
    • To compare ultrasonic findings with histological diagnoses.
    • To determine the role of ultrasonography in pre-operative parotid lesion evaluation.

    Summary:

    • Morphological criteria from 82 parotid tumors were analyzed using ultrasonography and compared with histological results.
    • Ultrasonography precisely determined tumor size, cystic/solid composition, and pre-operative malignancy potential.

  • Despite limitations, ultrasonography proved reliable for evaluating isolated nodular parotid lesions.
  • Impact:

    • Ultrasonography enhances pre-surgical planning for parotid tumors.
    • It offers a safe, rapid, and reliable complementary diagnostic tool.
    • Improves diagnostic accuracy for benign vs. malignant parotid lesions.
