Description

Corrado Tagliati and Ximena Wortsman present an ultrasound case in a 2025 paper. A nineteen year old woman with tuberous sclerosis complex carries a shagreen patch on her back, a skin sign of the disease. High frequency ultrasound showed the patch's skin layer as thicker and less echo bright than normal. The authors report the image as the first of its kind for this lesion, giving clinicians a sound based portrait of a patch usually judged by eye and touch alone.
