The x-ray imaging of breast organ is called mammography. It helps to detect breast cancer
early and reduces the mortality rates for women >50 age.
BREAST ULTRASOUND: Breast ultrasound uses sound waves to make a picture of the tissues
inside the breast. A breast ultrasound can show all areas of the breast including the area
closest to the chest wall which is hard to study with a mammogram. It is often used to check
abnormal results from a mammogram. It may be useful in younger women, where the
denser fibrous tissue of the breast may make mammogram more difficult to interpret.
MRI BREAST: MRI of the breast offers valuable information about many breast conditions
that cannot be obtained by other imaging modalities, such as mammography or ultrasound.

cancer. *To determine the extent of cancer after diagnosed. *For evaluating breast implants
etc.,
