Abstract

In addition to the sonographic characteristics of the B-mode image, the type of vascularization is of major importance for assessment of a lesion in terms of differential diagnosis. In sonographic examinations, the established procedures of color-Doppler sonography and, since recently, contrast-assisted sonography are used for this purpose.
