1,344 women were examined in the course of 3 years by means of the ultrasonic system Multiplanar MS 3 which was coupled direct to the skin. This direct coupling to the skin of the breast and the freely mobile sound head enable immediate puncture of tumours of the breast in direct ultrasonic vision. In multiple cysts it will be possible to puncture all cysts--including the occult ones--in one session. In the first 229 examined tumours, the rate of accuracy of the diagnosis "cyst" was 98%. Successful punctures, including the non-palpable cysts, were effected down to a minimum volume of 0.1 ml. The problem of the nonpalpable cysts can be considered as solved from the sonographic angle. In our case, this entailed omission, and hence saving in cost, of every third biopsy of the mammae (approximately 200 out of 600 biopsies per annum).
在3年时间里，使用直接与皮肤耦合的多平面MS 3超声系统对1344名女性进行了检查。这种与乳房皮肤的直接耦合以及可自由移动的探头，能够在直接超声视野下对乳房肿瘤立即进行穿刺。对于多发性囊肿，可以在一次操作中穿刺所有囊肿，包括隐匿性囊肿。在最初检查的229个肿瘤中，“囊肿”诊断的准确率为98%。成功穿刺的囊肿，包括不可触及的囊肿，最小体积可达0.1毫升。从超声角度来看，不可触及囊肿的问题可以认为已经解决。就我们的情况而言，这意味着每年可省略三分之一的乳房活检（每年约600次活检中的200次），从而节省了成本。
