Diagnopein USG Breast - Bilateral / unilateral Centre in Karad

USG Breast – Bilateral / Unilateral is a painless, safe, and non-invasive diagnostic ultrasound test that uses high-frequency sound waves to examine breast tissue. It helps detect abnormalities such as lumps, cysts, or masses in one or both breasts. Unlike mammography, USG Breast does not use radiation, making it ideal for women of all ages, including pregnant and lactating women.

The scan can be performed as USG Breast Unilateral (for one breast) or USG Breast Bilateral (for both breasts), depending on the doctor’s recommendation and the patient’s condition. It is often used alongside a mammogram for a more comprehensive evaluation of breast health.

Why USG Breast – Bilateral / Unilateral is Important

Early detection plays a vital role in effective breast disease management. A Breast USG helps identify abnormalities before physical symptoms develop. It distinguishes between solid and fluid-filled structures, aiding in the early detection of benign and malignant growths.

Doctors recommend USG Breast Bilateral for patients with a family history of breast cancer, palpable lumps in both breasts, or generalized breast discomfort. On the other hand, USG Breast Unilateral is helpful for evaluating pain, lump, or tenderness localized to one breast.

Regular screening with Breast Sonography enhances diagnostic confidence and supports ongoing monitoring for changes over time.

Benefits of USG Breast – Bilateral / Unilateral

  1. Completely safe and radiation-free for all age groups.

  2. Detects small cysts and lesions that may not appear on X-rays.

  3. Real-time imaging provides accurate assessment of tissue structure.

  4. Useful in distinguishing benign from suspicious breast lumps.

  5. Assists in guided procedures such as biopsy or cyst aspiration.

  6. Quick, comfortable, and non-invasive procedure that takes 10–20 minutes.

Choosing USG Breast – Bilateral / Unilateral ensures detailed imaging and timely detection, supporting proactive breast health care and early diagnosis.

How the USG Breast Test is Done

The USG Breast procedure is simple and does not require special preparation. The patient is usually asked to lie on an examination table. A clear gel is applied to the breast area, and a small handheld device called a transducer is moved over the skin to capture real-time images of the breast tissue.

During a USG Breast Bilateral scan, both breasts are examined, including the underarm (axillary) regions, which can help detect lymph node involvement. In a USG Breast Unilateral test, only the affected breast is scanned. The procedure is painless, and the images are displayed instantly for interpretation by a radiologist.

Results are typically available within a short time, providing valuable information for diagnosis or follow-up planning.

Key Parameters Evaluated in USG Breast

  1. Breast tissue density and architecture.

  2. Presence of lumps, nodules, cysts, or calcifications.

  3. Margins, shape, and internal structure of detected lesions.

  4. Ductal or glandular abnormalities.

  5. Skin and nipple changes.

  6. Axillary lymph node assessment.

These details help radiologists detect any abnormal changes early, aiding in prompt diagnosis and treatment.

When to Get a USG Breast Done

  1. Presence of a breast lump or localized pain.

  2. Nipple discharge or skin dimpling.

  3. Unexplained breast swelling or tenderness.

  4. Routine screening for women under 40 years.

  6. Follow-up after surgery or ongoing treatment.
