ObjectivesTo compare the imaging findings of Bowen's disease (BD) between ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and conventional high‐frequency ultrasound (HFUS).MethodsA total of 29 pathologically proven BD lesions in 28 patients were retrospectively enrolled in the study, and all were after surgery. All the lesions were imaged with both UBM and HFUS. The imaging features on HFUS and UBM were analyzed and compared. The diagnostic results of ultrasound for BD were referenced with pathology results.ResultsAll the 29 (100%) BD lesions appeared hypoechogenicity, solid component, and superficial hyperechoic layer (ie, keratinization) on both UBM and HFUS. The typical imaging feature of BD lesions, that was, infiltration depth confined to the epidermis, was visualized in 25 (86.2%, 25/29) lesions on UBM whereas 15 (51.7%, 15/29) on HFUS (P= .002). A “wave sign,” which corresponds to the surface keratinization of BD lesion, was visualized in 17 (58.6%, 17/29) of BD lesions on UBM whereas 6 (20.7%, 6/29) on HFUS (P= .001). UBM and HFUS correctly diagnosed 25 (86.2%, 25/29) and 15 (51.7%, 15/29) BD lesions, respectively (P= .002).ConclusionsBowen's disease has some typical imaging features on US. The “wave sign” of the superficial hyperechoic layer and the clear borderline between the tumor in epidermis and the slightly hyperechoic dermis layer are better depicted by UBM in comparison with HFUS, which leads to a more accurate diagnosis of BD. UBM has potential to be used as a diagnostic tool for characterization of BD on account of its high resolution.
