What are the advantages of ultrasound for breast lumps? It also has these functions
There are many ways to check for breast lumps, among which breast ultrasound is very advantageous and has characteristics that are not found in other breast examinations. Here, we will not only introduce you to the advantages of color ultrasound to check breast lumps, but also take stock of the role of color ultrasound to check breast lumps, don't miss it.
The role of color ultrasound examination of breast lumps
This condition is if a single or multiple lumps are found on one or both sides of the breastBreast hyperplasia。 Breast lumps tend to occur on the outer upper part of the breast, which are lumpy, nodular, granular or cord-like, mostly patchy, with unclear borders, medium or slightly hard, no adhesions between the movement and the surrounding tissues, may be tender, and the lumps vary in size, such as sand grains.
Breast lumps enlarge before menstruation and shrink and soften after menstruation. Don't worry about suffering from breast lumps, as long as you do a good job of prevention and treatment.
The morphology of the breast lump. Infiltrative borders are the main characteristics of mammary love, which are often shown as crab feet and burr signs on color ultrasound. Breast lumps with well-defined borders and regular morphology are mostly benign. Sonography of calcifications within the mass.
Calcifications are of great value in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The calcification of breast cancer is characterized by pinpoint or sediment-like microcalcification, and the high resolution of color ultrasound can easily detect the calcification of the mass.
Blood flow in and around the lump. Breast love stimulates the body to produce a fibroid angiogenesis factor that stimulates angiogenesis and forms a rich vascular network. Ultrasonography usually shows abundant blood flow in or around the mass, and sometimes perforators, especially arterial vessels, can be found within the mass.
So, what are the advantages of using color ultrasound to check for breast lumps?
Advantages of color ultrasound examination of breast lumps
Breast color ultrasound, also known as breast color Doppler ultrasound, can show the internal structure of the breast tumor more clearly, observe the relationship between the tumor and the surrounding tissues, observe the size, shape and margin of the lesion, and better observe the number and distribution of blood vessels inside and outside the tumor.It can be measured to 0. 3~0。 5 cm lumps.
Mammosmogram can detect more subtle lesions on the basis of breast palpation, and a 3-5mm lump can be detected in the breast tissue. With the development of electronic technology, the application of high-frequency ultrasound probe and color Doppler phenomenon instrument, the detection rate of breast masses is as high as 90%-95%, and color ultrasound can show the location, size, shape, blood flow signal of the lesion, etc., which is fast, safe and easy for patients to accept.
From this point of view, it is necessary to do a color ultrasound examination of the breast lump.
