“…We usually perform US studies for dermatologic lesions with a high-resolution, broad-band (5MHz-18MHz) linear transducer (Nobulus Hitachi, Ltd. Tokyo, Japan). We have also reported several studies of the dermatologic field [6][7][8][9][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Carra et al [19] technically suggested that only light pressure should be used to avoid compressing small vessels and missing flow.…”

“…It has been indicated that the most accurate US features of lesion activity are subcutaneous tissue echogenicity and cutaneous blood flow [4,5]. In addition, tumors of dermatological superficial location, namely intradermal nodular fasciitis [6][7][8], angioleiomyoma [9,10], and primarily in dermis-seated tumors [21,22] have been reported. Well, acoustic coupler, namely SF-001 for superficial or near-field observation has been developed [11].…”

“…In addition, intradermal nodular fasciitis, primality dermis-seated [6][7][8] and angioleiomyoma, located close to or in contact with the dermis [9,10] have been also reported. The author will indicate that the accurate US diagnosis for dermatological superficial lesions, particularly dermal involvement is significant.…”

We have described the experience using the acoustic coupler for subcutaneous angiolipoma comprehensively diagnosed in the lower extremity. The feature of ultrasonography (US) image with the acoustic coupler is more clearly depicted, particularly in superficial or near-field location. The usefulness of this procedure has been demonstrated as stableness state, equipped condition, and satisfactory observation for vasculature status due to the low attenuation material as previously described. The author will also recommend the observation with acoustic coupler for dermatologic superficial lesion, especially, rough, unevenness part in hand, foot, and joint location without copious amount of gel. We will indicate that acoustic coupler is useful for the appropriate condition to depict the accurate imaging on Real-Time Tissue Elastography (RTE). The author will suggest that this procedure can contribute to the accurate US diagnosis for dermatological superficial lesion, especially dermal involvement without a generous amount of gel.

“…Recently, Yang et al [2] described that the target sign is a prominent feature on US in peripheral schwannoma. The author usually performs US studies for dermatologic fields with a high-resolution, broad-band (5MHz-18MHz) linear transducer (Nobulus Hitachi, Ltd.

Dermatologic ultrasound imaging has been rapidly growing in recently years [1,2]. Currently, ultrasonography (US) studies for superficial fibromatoses, palmar fibromatosis, namely Dupuytren's disease [3] and plantar disease, namely Ledderhose disease [4] which are located in the subcutaneous tissue have been described in ultrasound field. Dupuytren's disease is a routine for the dermatologist, because patient with subcutaneous nodule may firstly visit a dermatologist. In this review, the author provides an update on the characteristic US appearances in superficial fibromatoses, palmar and plantar diseases. Dermatological UltrasoundThe international working group, namely DERMUS (Dermatologic Ultrasound) was formed and provided the guidelines [1] and proposed for an assessment training program [2]. Currently, US reports for palmar fibromatosis, namely Dupuytren's disease [3]and plantar disease, namely Ledderhorse disease [4] which are soft tissue tumors have been described in ultrasound field. We usually perform US studies for dermatologic fields with a high-resolution, broad-band (5MHz-18MHz) linear transducer (Nobulus Hitachi, Ltd.Tokyo, Japan). We have also provided several reports of the dermatologic lesion [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Normal Skin ElasticityThe author has previously described anatomy in dermatological ultrasound [16]. Klauser et al. [17] suggested that red is used to represent softer tissues, blue represents harder tissues, and yellow or green represent intermediate tissue elasticity on sonoelastography. The dermis consisting of connective tissue, nerves, blood, and lymphatic vessels, gland, mast cells, fibroblasts, histiocytes [18] represents blue color, showing hard nature, namely, low elasticity. While the subcutaneous fat tissue shows red color, consistent with soft nature, suggesting high elasticity, and reflecting contents of adipose cells [18] on RTE. Yang et al. [19] also studied a reference range of normal skin elasticity evaluated by share wave elastography (SWE) in healthy subjects to interpret results in patients with systemic scleroderma. They described that
