Sonography, which images morphologic changes, is useful in assessing splenic abscesses. Five of 6 abscesses (in humans) had a predominantly anechoic pattern with internal foci of higher echogenicity. In 1 gas-containing lesion, there were high amplitude echoes throughout the abscess. The abscesses were easily distinguishable from the surrounding homogeneous normal spleen. Sonography, while not definitive, is an effective tool in reaching an early diagnosis of splenic abscess. This allows prompt splenectomy, ameliorating prognosis.
