Imaging of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Author
Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a complex disease of chronic evolution and difficult management.
Imaging, particularly color Doppler ultrasound, has demonstrated a wide range of subclinical
anatomic abnormalities, allowing modification of the clinical assessment of severity of the disease
and therefore management of patients. Sonography supports early and more precise diagnosis and
staging by providing critical objective information in real time. The richness of these data can also
support assessment of the pathogenesis of the disease, allow monitoring of patients, and contribute
to clinical trials. MRI can support the diagnosis of extensive anogenital and deep lesions.
