What is Breast Ultrasound?

Breast ultrasound is an important imaging examination that enables accurate assessment of breast tissue and early detection of changes.

With this non-invasive examination, the doctor detects:

Cysts – fluid-filled masses in the breasts
Nodules – solid changes in the tissue
Tumours – benign and malignant changes
Inflammation – mastitis and abscesses
Lymph nodes – axillary lymph nodes
Dense tissue – assessment when mammography reliability is lower
