Breast sonography: When should you undergo examination?
April 09, 2024
Ultrasound examination of the mammary glands is recommended annually for women aged 35-40 and below. This is because at a young age, the mammary glands have a dense structure, making the examination highly sensitive.
Indications for ultrasound of the mammary glands include:
- Palpable lumps and tenderness in the chest
- Changes in the appearance of the breasts and nipples
- Nipple discharge
- Pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding)
- Chest injury or mastitis
- Hereditary predisposition to malignant and benign breast tumors
- Assessment of implant condition after plastic surgery
- Breast biopsy under ultrasound guidance.
