title: [Ultrasound investigations of superficial structures during childhood (author's transl)].
abstract: The past decade has seen the emergence of different ultrasound techniques for a wide variety of disorders. We directed our interest to the study of superficially located structures. We succeeded in percepting and distinguishing pathological liquid and parenchymal structures (effusion, abscess, hematoma, lymph-node, tumor ...), in discribing their exact location and in calculating their volume. Annotations about the ultrasonographic patterns of these pathological structures are given beside the illustration of cases.
