[The sonographic differential diagnosis of supra and infra diaphragmatic processes (author's transl)].
The sonographic features and differential diagnosis of 95 supra and infra diaphragmatic processes are described. Sonographic demonstration of the diaphragm permits definite differentiation between simple and loculated pleural effusions from periparenchymatous fluid collections in the abdomen.
