Abstract: Objective To evaluate the value of high-freq uency ultrasound for dignosing erythema nodosum(EN).Methods Twenty-six cases with EN confirmed by biopsy were studi ed by high-frequency ultrasound imaging.Results Acute type(early,middle,and late stage)had a different s onographic feature when compared to chronic one. Conclusions High frequency ultrasound has an important clinical value for the diagnosis of grade and degree of EN. The featunes of sonographic i mage in EN are in consistent with the pathological findings, indicating that i t is a new convenient and non-invasive method for the diagnosis of skin lesion s.
