Spleen Ultrasound Anatomy
Spleen ultrasound anatomy is presented here as a labeled cross-sectional atlas. Every view pairs a color-coded anatomy diagram with the matching real ultrasound image, so you can learn the expected shape and position of the spleen and then recognise it on a real scan.
In the atlas legend the spleen belongs to the spleen group and is shown in a consistent colour wherever it appears. The small body marker on each card shows where the transducer sits for that view, which makes it easier to reproduce the image at the bedside.
