Preoperative Ultrasonic Assessment of Thin Melanocytic Skin Lesions Using a 100-MHz Ultrasound Transducer: A Comparative Study

Abstract

Analysis of agreement clearly demonstrated that the performance of 100-MHz ultrasound is superior to conventional 20-MHz ultrasound, even though a relatively small positive bias was observed in 100-MHz ultrasound, indicating a systematic error. We consider 100-MHz ultrasound a useful tool for the noninvasive determination of TT of thin MSL in vivo.
