Ultrasound study for skin lumps under the skin
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to look at lumps under the skin, comparing the images with results from a biopsy (tissue sample). It aims to find patterns that help doctors diagnose these lumps without needing to take a sample first.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a lump under your skin that needs a biopsy for diagnosis
- The lump is in a place where a small sample can be taken
- You agree to join and sign a consent form

This study compares two imaging tests – MRI and ultrasound – to see how well they show superficial soft tissue masses (lumps under the skin). If you have such a lump, this trial may help doctors choose the best imaging method for diagnosis.
This study tests a new ultrasound-guided method to break up and remove benign (non-cancerous) breast lumps using sound waves, so you can avoid visible scars. It's an option for women who want an effective but less invasive treatment.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to remove fatty lumps (lipomas) using ultrasound to guide a special treatment that breaks them down. It aims to reduce scarring and improve cosmetic results compared to traditional surgery.
This study uses a special ultrasound technique (VisR) to look at the structure of breast tissue and collagen in women with suspicious or known breast cancer. The goal is to see if this imaging can help doctors better understand breast cancer without needing a biopsy.
This study uses a special ultrasound technique to look at thyroid nodules and lumps in the neck. The goal is to tell the difference between harmless lumps and cancer, so you may get a clearer answer without extra procedures.
This study explores a new way to process ultrasound images of the breast. It is for women who have a finding, cyst, mass, or calcifications seen on a mammogram or ultrasound, and it uses a special ultrasound technique that may provide clearer images without extra radiation.
