The variation in the sonographic appearances of superficial soft-tissue infections probably reflects a continuous process that leads from soft-tissue edema, seen in cellulitis, to a fully developed abscess and that depends on the type of infection or the immune status of the host. We describe the sonographic findings seen in this process and the variable appearance of abscesses, with emphasis on scanning techniques that facilitate the diagnosis of liquefaction.
浅表软组织感染的超声表现差异可能反映了一个连续的过程，该过程从蜂窝织炎中可见的软组织水肿发展到完全形成的脓肿，且这一过程取决于感染类型或宿主的免疫状态。我们描述了在此过程中观察到的超声表现以及脓肿的多样外观，重点介绍有助于诊断液化的扫描技术。
