Prospective observational study assesses ultrasound's diagnostic performance for hepatic mass, suggesting it may effectively complement MDCT.

Ultrasound achieved 88% sensitivity and 92% specificity in detecting hepatic mass compared to MDCT.
ROC analysis showed an area under the curve of 0.902, indicating strong diagnostic accuracy for ultrasound.
Among 64 patients, both ultrasound and MDCT identified hepatic mass in 39.1% of cases.
High positive predictive value supports ultrasound as a reliable first-line diagnostic tool for assessing hepatic lesions.
