Reveal Answer
Correct Answer:
Bright image
Explanation:
Hyperechoic means high echogenicity: a structure reflects more ultrasound waves than the surrounding tissue, so the image appears brighter. This occurs with dense or highly reflective tissues like bone, calcifications, or certain fibrous tissues. By contrast, anechoic structures produce no echoes and look black, while hypoechoic structures are darker than surrounding tissue. Isoechoic would have similar brightness to surrounding tissue. So hyperechoic describes a bright image.
