Figure 3 A splenic TB lesion with septation-like enhancement. (A) Conventional US demonstrates a hypoechoic lesion with a well-defined border and heterogeneous(arrows); (B–D) CEUS demonstrates that the lesion begins to enhance from the margin at 13 s after injection of SonoVue (B, arrows) to the internal in a septation-like manner at 30 s (C, head arrows). The internal septation-like enhancement is washed out and the marginal tissues become iso-enhanced compared with the peripheral splenic parenchyma in the late parenchymal phase (D, arrows).
