title: Cysts in the cyst pattern.
abstract: The increased knowledge of the natural course of cystic echinococcosis has also improved our understanding of the typical imaging features ("cysts in the cyst pattern") which can be nicely shown by imaging modalities, e. g., ultrasound and computed tomography. In the very early stages of echinococcosis without calcifications, ultrasound can depict the specific intralesional morphology in detail.
