Pediatric facial and scalp lesions are a common indication for imaging. Ultrasound is often the first imaging modality in the work-up of these lesions. While many soft-tissue lesions are nonspecific on ultrasound, there are several which have a characteristic sonographic appearance, including pseudotumors such as asymmetric buccal fat pads and fat necrosis, vascular lesions such as infantile hemangioma and venous malformations, scalp lesions such as cephalohematoma and subgaleal fluid collection and other lesions including dermoid cysts and pilomatricoma. Prompt recognition of these lesions can reduce unnecessary further investigations and improve timely diagnosis and management. The aim of this pictorial essay is to demonstrate the characteristic sonographic appearances of the most common pediatric facial and scalp lesions with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging correlation where appropriate to aid in narrowing the differential diagnosis and if warranted direct subspecialty referral.
