Overview

Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of glomus tumor. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of glomus tumor include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

Glomus tumor is diagnosed based on symptoms and physical examination. However, preoperative localization of the tumor is needed in order to determine the size of the lesion ensuring complete resection and avoiding recurrence.

Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include:

• [Finding 1]
• [Finding 2]
• [Finding 3]
