The Role of Breast Ultrasound

Breast ultrasound is a safe imaging tool that may be used alongside mammography to provide additional information about breast tissue.

It may be recommended in situations such as:
• Evaluating symptoms in younger women
• Assessing findings seen on a mammogram
• Supporting assessment in pregnant or breastfeeding patients
• Imaging women with breast implants
• Guiding procedures such as biopsies or cyst drainage
• Monitoring patients with a history of breast cancer

Ultrasound is often used as part of a comprehensive assessment of breast symptoms, alongside clinical examination and mammography when appropriate.

While breast ultrasound can provide valuable additional detail, it is generally used in combination with other imaging rather than as a standalone test.

📌 Key points:
✔️ No radiation exposure
✔️ Helpful in selected clinical situations
✔️ Works best as part of a full breast assessment

If you have questions about your breast health or imaging options, speak with your healthcare provider for advice tailored to you.
