Neoplasms of the spleen, either primary or secondary, are rare, and knowledge of them is insufficient. Actually, the spleen had been a difficult organ clinically to assess until the ultrasonic technique was introduced for medical diagnostic purposes. Nowadays, one can easily determine splenic size by using one of the largest cross sectional area of several ultrasonic scans taken parallel to the IXth ribs). Ultrasonic appearance of the spleens in the tomograms taken by our method is classified into three basic patterns. Splenotomograms of our own cases with diffuse and localized splenic tumors were shown in this study. Ultrasonic scanning of the spleen is a non-invasive and valuable diagnostic technique for estimation of its configuration and size, and for detection and some degree of tissue characterization of space occupying lesions. However, further extensive investigation is needed for more accurate tissue characterization of the splenic lesions.
脾脏肿瘤，无论是原发性还是继发性，都很罕见，人们对它们的了解也不足。实际上，在超声技术被引入医学诊断用途之前，脾脏在临床上一直是一个难以评估的器官。如今，通过使用与第九肋骨平行进行的几次超声扫描中最大的横截面积之一，就可以轻松确定脾脏大小。通过我们的方法所拍摄的断层扫描中脾脏的超声表现可分为三种基本模式。本研究展示了我们自己病例中弥漫性和局限性脾脏肿瘤的脾断层图。脾脏的超声扫描是一种用于评估其形态和大小、检测占位性病变并在一定程度上进行组织特征描述的非侵入性且有价值的诊断技术。然而，为了更准确地对脾脏病变进行组织特征描述，还需要进一步广泛的研究。
