The availability of reliable, portable computer-enhanced ultrasonography with high-frequency transducers has improved breast ultrasonography such that its role has increased dramatically. Diagnostic characteristics of breast lesions may be used to categorize these lesions according to their relative risk for malignancy. Furthermore, breast ultrasonography may be used to guide needle aspiration and biopsy of lesions so indicated by diagnostic evaluation. Results of ultrasound-guided aspiration and core biopsy accurately diagnose specific histopathology thereby avoiding unnecessary open biopsy for benign lesions and facilitating therapeutic planning for malignant lesions.
具备可靠、便携且配备高频换能器的计算机增强超声检查技术的出现，改善了乳腺超声检查，使其作用大幅提升。乳腺病变的诊断特征可用于根据其相对恶性风险对这些病变进行分类。此外，乳腺超声检查可用于指导对诊断评估显示需要进行穿刺和活检的病变进行操作。超声引导下穿刺和粗针活检的结果能够准确诊断特定的组织病理学情况，从而避免对良性病变进行不必要的开放性活检，并有助于对恶性病变进行治疗规划。
