Ultrasonography of the mammary glands in Odessa
Regular examination and checkup by a Mammologist can identify pathological processes in the mammary glands at an early stage of development. One of the most general and accurate diagnostic techniques in Mammology is the Ultrasonography of the mammary glands. At the Medical Center ON Clinic Odessa, ultrasound devices of the latest generation - SIEMENS ACUSON NX3 elite are used, which makes the research process quick and discoverable.
What is the Ultrasonography of the mammary glands?
This technique allows you to get an image of the existing lumps in real-time mode: aside from the cyst in the mammary gland, an ultrasonography apparatus is diagnosed with fibrocystic changes, tumor, mastopathy, or a blocked milk duct.
Breast Ultrasonography reveals pathological changes, displaying their significant for the diagnosis characteristics:
- structure;
- form;
- size;
- contour, etc.
The advantage of SIEMENS ACUSON NX3 elite is their high resolution, which allows identifying the pathology at its initial stage of formation. Decoding Ultrasonography of the mammary glands is the responsibility of the Mammologist or sonographer.
Is it possible to do Ultrasonography of the mammary glands during breast feeding? Yes, it is. Ultrasonography does not adversely affect the organism, which makes it possible to use it repeatedly for diagnostic purposes, during puncture, and as a way to control the response to treatment.
Is it possible to determine breast cancer by Ultrasonography? This examination does not reveal many types of cancer, but it is appointed if there are contraindications for X-ray control and during performing a biopsy under Ultrasonography control.
The indications for ultrasound examination of the breast are:
- discomfort and pain in the mammary gland;
- breast asymmetry;
- enlargement of the regional lymph nodes;
- the presence of inflammatory, endocrine disorders and taking the course of their treatment;
- breast injuries;
- deformation of the skin of the mammary glands;
- discharge from the mamillas;
- previously performed breast surgery;
- preventive examination, etc.
What is the difference between mammography and Ultrasonography of the mammary glands?
Mammography is based on the ability of X-rays to penetrate tissue of various densities. Despite the fact that the irradiation dose during the mammography is small, for women during gestation and breast feeding, it is preferable to undergo an Ultrasonography of the breast, as well as for women younger than 35 years, due to the greater density of the breast tissue. In general, both methods are complementary and are assigned depending on the diagnostic goals.
When is it better to undergo Ultrasonography of the mammary glands?
The most favorable period for the procedure is 5th-10th days of the cycle, since during this period the hormonal background of the woman is stable and does not distort the current clinical situation. While taking hormonal contraceptives, it does not matter on which day of the cycle it is better to do Ultrasonography of the mammary glands. During the period of pregnancy or during menopause, the date of the examination is depends solely on the doctor's prescription. Women under 45 years old are recommended to undergo the procedure once a year, and after - twice a year. Special preparation for Ultrasonography of the mammary glands is not required.
