Breast ultrasound

Breast ultrasound is a safe and painless method that allows for the evaluation of the breast tissue structure and the identification of various pathological changes. This examination is especially important for the early diagnosis of nodules, cysts, fibroadenomas, and other benign or malignant formations.

The examination is particularly recommended in the following cases:

• Detected breast tissue thickening or structural changes;

• Nipple discharge;

• Additional examination following findings in mammography or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI);

• Monitoring of previously diagnosed pathologies;

• Discomfort or pain in the breasts;

• Assessment of breast implant condition.

Preparation for the examination.

No special preparation is required for the breast ultrasound examination.

Examination procedure.

During the breast ultrasound examination, the patient lies in a supine position on the examination table. The doctor carefully scans the breast tissue using an ultrasound device that employs sound waves to obtain high-quality images displayed on the screen. This method is fast, painless, and non-invasive, and does not require any recovery time.

After the examination, the doctor prepares a detailed report of the findings and, if necessary, provides consultation and recommendations regarding further diagnostics or treatment plans.

Breast ultrasound is an important tool for timely and accurate diagnosis, which promotes the maintenance of breast health and helps prevent the development of serious diseases.
