Frequently, correct evaluation of space-occupying lesions in the tongue is not possible with clinical methods only. In an attempt to assess the value of sonography in the detection of tongue lesions, we used submental sonography to examine 62 patients with suspicious palpatory findings upon physical examination of the tongue. Ultrasound detected 45 out of 47 tumours that were eventually confirmed either by surgery or by biopsy. Inadequate technique was the only factor that affected the detection rate. Sonography appears to be a reasonable guide in determining size and site of a tumour of the tongue. Thus, more precision in therapy planning may be achieved.
通常，仅靠临床方法无法对舌部占位性病变进行准确评估。为了评估超声检查在舌部病变检测中的价值，我们采用颏下超声检查了62例在舌部体格检查时有可疑触诊结果的患者。超声检测出了47个肿瘤中的45个，这些肿瘤最终通过手术或活检得到证实。技术不足是影响检测率的唯一因素。超声检查似乎是确定舌部肿瘤大小和位置的合理指导。因此，在治疗计划中可能会实现更高的精准度。
