CAPABILITIES OF MULTIPARAMETRIC ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION IN DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF SOFT TISSUE TUMORS

From the first publications on soft tissue ultrasound, it was noted that echography allows for the visualization of structural details inaccessible with standard radiography. Subsequently, numerous studies have confirmed the method's high differential diagnostic accuracy in assessing soft tissue pathologies. It has been demonstrated that ultrasound's ability to detect soft tissue tumors is not only comparable to radiographic methods, including computed tomography, but in some clinical situations, it surpasses them in sensitivity, particularly for superficial tumors and for assessing the structure of the tumor.Abstract
The early diagnosis of musculoskeletal and soft tissue tumors remains one of the unsolved challenges in modern oncology and radiation diagnostics. Traditional imaging methods, including various modifications of X-ray examinations, computed tomography, and other imaging techniques, are associated with radiation exposure, high cost, and limitations in the frequency of repeat use. This is especially important for dynamic monitoring, evaluation of treatment effectiveness, and early detection of disease recurrence.
