The spectrum of vascularized superficial soft-tissue tumors on sonography with a histopathologic correlation: Part 1, benign tumors

AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2010 Aug;195(2):439-45. doi: 10.2214/AJR.09.3832.

Abstract

Objective: The objective of this article is to illustrate the sonographic findings of benign, vascularized superficial soft-tissue tumors.

Conclusion: Sonography can play an important role in the diagnosis of benign, vascularized superficial soft-tissue tumors. Awareness of these findings is important in establishing the correct diagnosis and determining the optimal treatment.
