Linear scar through the subcutaneous tissue lies between the transducer and the fibroid, on the sagittal localizer image on the left. The sagittal localizer image on the right is obtained after tilting the transducer superiorly, without moving the patient, allowing treatment planning that will not course through the anterior abdominal subcutaneous tissue scar.
