A Reliable Method for Your Breast Health: Breast Ultrasonography

As Metropol Health Group, we offer breast ultrasonography (USG) services to examine abnormalities in breast tissue and provide early diagnosis. Breast ultrasonography provides a more comprehensive evaluation when used in combination with mammography and is an important diagnostic tool for your breast health.

In Which Situations Is Breast Ultrasonography Used?

• Breast Pain or Tenderness: To understand the cause of discomfort felt in the breast.
• Breast Tissue Swelling or Mass: Examination of any noticed hardness or abnormal swelling.
• Nipple discharge: Investigation of the causes of liquid or bloody discharge.
• Skin Changes or Redness: Evaluation of redness, swelling or structural changes in the skin of the breast.

How is Breast Ultrasonography Performed?

1. Preparation: The patient lies in a comfortable position.
2. Use of the Probe: The ultrasound probe is gently applied to the breast tissue. Sound waves are sent out and the reflected waves create images on the device.
3. Imaging: High-resolution images show in detail any cysts, masses or other abnormal structures in the breast.

The procedure is usually painless, takes only a few minutes and offers a comfortable experience for patients.

Treatment Process with Breast Ultrasonography

• Early Diagnosis and Monitoring: Abnormalities in the breast are detected at an early stage and the treatment process is started quickly.
• Support with biopsy: Under ultrasound guidance, a biopsy is taken from abnormal tissues to provide a definitive diagnosis.
• Routine follow-up: Checking for previously diagnosed breast problems and monitoring the healing process.
