Key result
Sonographic bright rim and cap signs correlate with MRI equivalents in ~83% of intramuscular myxomas.

Does sonography show bright rim and bright cap signs in patients with intramuscular myxomas?
Sonography can identify bright rim and bright cap signs in intramuscular myxomas, which may assist in accurate diagnosis before biopsy.

May aid pre-biopsy diagnosis of myxomas; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before clinical adoption.
Girish et al. (2006) conducted an observational in Soft tissue myxomas (n=6). Sonographic evaluation was evaluated on Presence of sonographic bright rim and bright cap signs. Sonographic bright rim and bright cap signs were observed in 83% (5 of 6) of pathologically proven intramuscular myxomas, correlating with known MRI equivalents.
