A Breast UltraSound uses sound waves to make a picture of the tissues inside the breast.
A breast ultrasound can demonstrate all regions of the breast, including the zone closest to the midsection divider, which is difficult to study with a mammogram.
Breast ultrasound does not utilise X-rays or other potentially harmful sorts of radiation.
A Breast Ultrasound may be carried out to
- Find the reason for breast symptoms, for example, pain, swelling, and redness.
- Check for a breast knot found on breast examination or physical examination.
- It is utilised to see whether a bosom irregularity is liquid-filled (a growth) or, on the off chance that it is, a robust knot.
- A knot that has no liquid or that has liquid with gliding particles may require more tests.
- Check abnormal results from a mammogram.
- Look at the breasts of more youthful ladies in light of the fact that their breast tissue is regularly thicker, and a mammogram may not indicate as much detail.
- Guide the situation of a needle or other tube to empty an accumulation of liquid (cyst) or discharge (abscess), take a specimen of breast tissue (biopsy), or aid bosom surgery
- Watch for changes in the measure of a growth or a noncancerous knot (fibroadenoma).
- See how far cancer has spread in a breast.
- Check your breasts if you have silicone breast implants or thick breasts.
- In these circumstances, a mammogram will be unable to detect breast lumps.
