“…A similar image was also observed in a 7-year-old girl [36]. Worthy of emphasis is the fact that the image we obtained with the use of HFUS differed from the image observed in the colour Doppler ultrasonography, which demonstrated a well-separated hypoechogenic nodule, yet the posterior attenuation was not observed [37]. Unfortunately, we do not have the histopathological image to which we could refer.…”

IntroductionUltrasonographic examination is commonly used in an outpatient setting, possibly due to its low cost, low risk for patients and the possibility to obtain real time images. Typically used heads have the frequency ranging from 7.5 to 12 MHz. Higher frequencies ensure higher resolution, yet they are limited by the penetration depth – reaching from several to several tens of millimetres into the skin. High-frequency ultrasonography (HFUS) appears to be a promising method for the detection and differential diagnostics of selected nodular skin lesions.AimThe study aimed at a comparison of the data obtained by using HFUS, histopathological and dermatoscopic images of selected skin lesions to determine their common features.Material and methodsNodular lesions classified as potentially malignant were subjected to clinical, dermatoscopic and high-frequency ultrasonographic examinations. Then the patients were referred for surgical removal with histopathological assessment.ResultsA total of 54 nodular lesions were examined, out of which 34 were diagnosed as non-melanoma. The most common lesions were melanocytic naevi dermatofibroma, nodular basal cell carcinoma and pyogenic granuloma. Other examined lesions included blue naevus, seborrheic wart, xanthogranuloma juvenile and Spits naevus. In all lesions except Spitz naevus, HFUS images corresponded at least with dermatoscopic or histopathology images.ConclusionsHFUS can be used as a supporting diagnostic tool ensuring better pre-operative proceedings. HFUS is a non-invasive, easy and inexpensive screening method for the determination of different skin cancers as it provides valuable information allowing to determine the cutting margins and lesion shape.

“…It usually presents as a solitary yellow‐brown nodule, most frequently located on the head and neck. Sonographically, it has been described as a well‐defined, ovoid, and homogeneously hypoechoic dermal tumor, occasionally producing a mild posterior acoustic enhancement . It displaces the epidermis upwards and may occupy part of the hypodermis.…”

High-frequency ultrasonography represents a promising tool for pediatric dermatologists. It is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that is particularly appealing when working with children. It can be easily performed at the patient's bedside, avoiding diagnostic delays, sedation, or multiple visits. It represents a useful adjunct to clinical examination and can enhance our understanding of cutaneous diseases. Patient cooperation and limited training and experience are the main challenges for cutaneous ultrasonography in pediatric dermatology. This review describes cutaneous ultrasonography and the nuances of its use in the pediatric setting, followed by the ultrasonographic findings of cutaneous lumps, bumps, and inflammatory dermatoses commonly encountered in pediatric patients.
