Breast Ultrasound is an imaging technique that utilizes sound waves to produce images of the internal structure of the breast.
This medical test is primarily done to check for breast lumps, tumors, and other abnormalities. It does not use high-energy radiation to screen for abnormalities. So, it is a safe and pain-free test that is also safe for pregnant women.
Doctors may advise you to take this test if they have not found anything during a physical exam, mammogram, or MRI. This is also safe for mothers who are breastfeeding.
What are the uses of Breast Ultrasound?
- Diagnosing breast abnormalities.
- Determining if the abnormality is a non-cancerous lump or a cyst (fluid-filled).
- An alternative for women who cannot undergo an MRI.
- An alternative to mammograms which relies on X-rays.
- Ultrasound-guided breast biopsy.
- An alternative for women with breast implants.
