Overview
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of lipoma. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of lipoma include Hypoechoic, minimally heterogeneous lesion.
Echocardiography or Ultrasound
- Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of lipoma. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of lipoma include Hypoechoic, minimally heterogeneous lesion.[1]
- Superficial lipomas tend to appear as an echogenic, well-defined mass without posterior enhancement.
- Deep lipomas may appear isoechoic or hypoechoic compared to adjacent muscle. It may show posterior acoustic enhancement due to greater acoustic transmission within fat compared to muscle.
- Ultrasound imaging have been observed to have low accuracy in the diagnosis of lipoma.[2]
