Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Guided Biopsy of Undetermined Abdominal Lesions: A Multidisciplinary Decision-Making Approach

Figure 2

Grayscale ultrasound detected a heterogeneous hypoechoic abdominal lesion in a 43-year-old female. No necrotic area was shown with conventional ultrasound (a). CDFI detected multiple blood flow inner lesion (b). In CEUS, major vessel was displayed inner lesion (arrow) (c). With CEUS guidance, 16-gauge coarse needle percutaneous biopsy (arrow) was performed successfully in the viable areas of the lesion and avoided major vessel (d). Histopathological results proved it was a liposarcoma (e).
