- Ultrasound is the most frequently used modality for the diagnosis.[1]
- On Ultrasound imaging, it may have variable appearances, however, the three most common appearances from the most common to least common include:[1][2]
- Cystic lesion with a projecting tubercle (Rokitansky nodule) into the cyst lumen that is densely echogenic
- A mass with partial or diffuse echogenicity due to sebaceous material and hair within the cyst cavity
- A cyst cavity with multiple thin, echogenic bands owing to hair materials
- Heterogeneous appearance with partially solid lesion
- Foci of calcification
- A heterogeneous mass which is predominantly solid
- A complex mass with multiple solid and cystic areas
- Lobulated components with heterogeneous echogenicity and with well-defined borders.
On color and power Doppler ultrasound:
- These tumors are highly vascularized.
- Heterogeneous echogenicity in the solid portion[3]
- Septas dividing the cystic portion
