Breast ultrasound in Taiwan
乳房超音波
Breast lumps; complements mammography, especially in dense breasts.
About this test
An imaging test performed on women in which a technician spreads gel on the breast and moves a handheld probe over the skin. Sound waves form pictures of the breast tissue on a screen, without radiation.
It looks at breast tissue to help assess lumps and to tell fluid-filled cysts from solid areas. It is used alongside mammography, especially when the breasts are dense and X-rays show less detail.
