✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Soluble protein fluid collections ranging from 0.5 to 21 gm/l00 ml and collections of protein microaggregates with a particle size less than 700 microns are indistinguishable from water when these collections are examined qualitatively by gray scale echography in a laboratory setting. Echography of protein macroaggregate collections of 1‐3 mm particle size gives rise to images showing strong internal echoes and poor margin definition and may simulate solid structures. Protein macroaggregates may be the source of error when complex biological fluids simulate solid lesions on gray scale echograms.

## Abstract Three types of protein‐lipid fluid collections–homogenized milk, buttermilk, and yogurt –were studied in liver tissue by __in vitro__ gray scale echography. These fluid collections are capable of producing internal echoes, dampened sound transmission, partial acoustic “shadows,” and ill
