Overview
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful raising the suspicion of tuberous sclerosis.
Echocardiography
- Echocardiographs can detect cardiac rhabdomyomas, present in more than 80% of the children with TSC.[1]
Ultrasound
- Ultrasound can detect hepatic angiomyolipomas, renal angiomyolipomas (present in 55-75% of patients) and renal cysts (present in 18-55% of the patients)[1]
