Abstract:
The near-field imaging capability of sonography equipment has recently and markedly improved. High-frequency ultrasonography can improve the specificity of clinically and mammographically detected abnormalities, and helps accurately distinguish benign solid nodules from indeterminate or malignant nodules. The aim of this distinction is to obviate surgical biopsy.
