Popis:	Abstract Objectives This study aimed to explore ultrasonography as a single imaging modality for the initial assessment of parotid lesions compared to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods A retrospective cross‐sectional study was performed on 264 parotid gland lesions evaluated in a dedicated point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) clinic with concurrent fine needle biopsy (FNB). Two hundred and nine of these lesions also underwent CT or MRI imaging. Histopathology results, when available, were recorded and compared to imaging impressions. Results Surgeon‐performed POCUS classified parotid masses accurately when compared to final histopathology (90/96, 94%). Using predefined criteria, POCUS determined the nature of parotid lesions more definitively than the descriptive CT or MRI radiology reports (p
