Abstract
Sonograms of 50 patients with a clinical suspicion of splenic abnormality were reviewed. With the use of high-resolution static and real-time equipment, combined with variable patient positioning, focal splenic lesions were well imaged. A wide variety of pathologic entities was sonographically demonstrated, including traumatic hematomas, primary and metastatic neoplasms, cysts, infarcts, and inflammatory granulomas.
