During ultrasonography, harmful radiation is not used like in the case of X-ray examinations.
Breast ultrasonography allows to receive different views on images. Cysts, benign and malignant lesions are clearly seen on these images.
Ultrasonography diagnostics can be used as an independent method or together with X-ray mammography. Besides, ultrasonography is used for follow-up of benign lesions that have already been detected.
Electrical impedance mammography stands side by side with ultrasonography. This progressive method of diagnostics, absolutely harmless for the patient and the doctor, has been gaining more and more popularity, partly due to the small size of the device and simplicity of the examination.
