Can ultrasound miss?
Can an ultrasound miss finding the pilonidal cyst or sinus?
I did an ultrasound near my intergluetal cleft but the operator said than no cyst was found, and also, i was scared of chordoma(as my pain lasted for many months in tailbone area), if any tumour would've been there, usg would've atleast caught some details, right?
