[A-scan echography of a hemangiopericytoma (author's transl)]. 1978

H Trauzettel, and E Wilson

The echographic characteristics of hemangiopericytomas were previously described as being similar to those of the sarcomas, with relatively low spikes. A case with high spikes is presented, which could not be differentiated echographically from a cavernous hemangioma.

D009918 Orbital Neoplasms Neoplasms of the bony orbit and contents except the eyeball. Neoplasm, Orbital,Neoplasms, Orbital,Orbital Neoplasm
D003937 Diagnosis, Differential Determination of which one of two or more diseases or conditions a patient is suffering from by systematically comparing and contrasting results of diagnostic measures. Diagnoses, Differential,Differential Diagnoses,Differential Diagnosis

D006392 Hemangioma, Cavernous A vascular anomaly that is a collection of tortuous BLOOD VESSELS and connective tissue. This tumor-like mass with the large vascular space is filled with blood and usually appears as a strawberry-like lesion in the subcutaneous areas of the face, extremities, or other regions of the body including the central nervous system. Angioma, Cavernous,Cavernous Angioma,Cavernous Hemangioma,Strawberry Hemangiomas,Cavernous Hemangiomas,Hemangioma, Strawberry,Hemangiomas, Cavernous,Hemangiomas, Strawberry,Strawberry Hemangioma
D006393 Hemangiopericytoma A tumor composed of spindle cells with a rich vascular network, which apparently arises from pericytes, cells of smooth muscle origin that lie around small vessels. Benign and malignant hemangiopericytomas exist, and the rarity of these lesions has led to considerable confusion in distinguishing between benign and malignant variants.

D014465 Ultrasonics A subfield of acoustics dealing in the radio frequency range higher than acoustic SOUND waves (approximately above 20 kilohertz). Ultrasonic radiation is used therapeutically (DIATHERMY and ULTRASONIC THERAPY) to generate HEAT and to selectively destroy tissues. It is also used in diagnostics, for example, ULTRASONOGRAPHY; ECHOENCEPHALOGRAPHY; and ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY, to visually display echoes received from irradiated tissues. Ultrasonic
