Overview

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Study of choice

Hemangioma is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation.

Diagnostic results

The following finding(s) on performing ultrasound or MRI (are) confirmatory for hemagioma seen in organs e.g. hepatic hemangioma.[1][2]

  • [Finding 1]
  • [Finding 2]
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies

The [name of investigation] must be performed when:

  • The patient presented with symptoms/signs 1, 2, and 3 as the first step of diagnosis.
  • A positive [test] is detected in the patient, to confirm the diagnosis.

OR

The various investigations must be performed in the following order:

  • [Initial investigation]
  • [2nd investigation]

Name of Diagnostic Criteria

  • There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of hemangioma.
