Ultrasound
Ultrasound
ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst. Finding on an ultrasound suggestive of bronchogenic cyst include
- On endobronchial ultrasound, an anechoic or hypoechoic fluid filled solid mass.[1][2][3]
- On transthoracic echocardiography revealing intracardiac cystic mass[4]
- On endoscopic ultrasonography, which demonstartes abdominal anatomic relations of the cyst[2]
