Overview
Ultrasound is beneficial for diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma in pelvic and abdominal tumors. Ultrasound findings of rhabdomyosarcoma are in favor of well-defined, irregular mass with low to medium echogenicity.
Ultrasound
- Ultrasound is beneficial for diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma in following cases:[1][2][3]
- Pelvic tumors such as prostate tumors or bladder tumors
- Abdominal tumors for liver evaluation
- Ultrasound findings of rhabdomyosarcoma are:
- Well-defined and irregular mass
- Low to medium echogenicity
