Objective: To describe a novel, dynamic ultrasound assessment of the Achilles tendon at the calcaneal insertion taking advantage of the effusion within the deep retrocalcaneal bursa as a natural contrast agent.
Materials And Methods: Positioning the ultrasound transducer in a longitudinal plane over the Achilles tendon at the calcaneal insertion, manual compression of the deep retrocalcaneal bursa can be performed using the other hand. Dynamically shifting the anechoic effusion from the proximal to the distal compartment of the bursa, the undersurface of the Achilles tendon is lifted from the underlying cortical bone of the superior facet of the calcaneal tuberosity.

Subchorionic hematoma (SCH) is a hematoma in which blood accumulates between the chorion and decidua basalis due to the separation of the chorion and decidua basalis. It is common in patients with threatened abortion in early pregnancy and is mainly detected by ultrasound. SCH mainly manifests as an hypoechoic or anechoic crescent-shaped fluid dark area on ultrasound images.

The tibial nerve intraneural ganglion cyst-which presents with fluid accumulated inside the nerve epineurium-is a rare etiology of tarsal tunnel syndrome. We report a case with insidious onset of numbness over his left medial ankle. Ultrasound imaging revealed that the tibial nerve was encircled by crescent-shaped anechoic substances, spanning from the distal leg to the sole.

"Solitary cysts" on the left kidney were found during a health examination of a 60-year-old female. The patient also had hypertension.
