We examined 26 cases with suspected tumor mass with ultrasonography between 1998 to 2000. Seventeen cases were diagnosed. Diagnosis was 8 ganglion, 3 lipoma, 3 atheroma, 3 Baker's cysts, and 1 malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Ultrasonography is readily available, inexpensive, and noninvasive. Generally ultrasonography assists in determining the size and consistency of a soft tissue mass. It is apparently useful for the diagnosis of the lipoma, atheroma, and ganglion.
