<p><strong>Breast sonography: When should you undergo examination?</strong></p>

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.
