Breast Ultrasound Elastography.
Elastography is a newly emerging study of interest that can be especially helpful when used as an adjunct to conventional B-mode ultrasound in evaluating breast lesions. It is estimated that 80% of breast lesions currently biopsied prove to be benign. Reducing that percentage is advantageous to both...

It is estimated that 80% of breast lesions currently biopsied prove to be benign. Reducing that percentage is advantageous to both patients and the imaging community. The specificity of conventional ultrasound when added to a mammography work-up needs improvement. Adding elastography may improve specificity. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: CEU diagnostic images exam questions pictorial questionnaire/scale review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
