title: Ultrasonographic evaluation of an unusual peri-anal induration: a possible case of deep tissue injury.
abstract: High-resolution ultrasound produces good quality echo images of skin and subcutaneous lesions. Here, it was used to characterise an atypical induration, which the authors speculate might have been a deep tissue injury.
