This preliminary study has shown that the application of a multimode sonographic technique (ie, 2D, 3D, and transrectal sonography) can provide unique evidence and imaging features of pelvic lipomatosis, which are comparable with CT for making a suggestive diagnosis of pelvic lipomatosis. Thus, multimode sonography may be the modality of choice for assessment of patients with a suspicion of lipomatosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
