Ultrasound (Breast w/ Axilla)

The Breast with Axilla Ultrasound is a specialized imaging technique that examines both the breast tissue and axillary lymph nodes, playing a vital role in early detection of abnormalities such as tumors or enlarged lymph nodes. The procedure is performed by applying a gel to the skin and using a handheld transducer to capture images, allowing the technician to visualize the structures in real time.

This non-invasive, radiation-free diagnostic tool allows for a comprehensive assessment of breast health, enabling timely intervention and facilitating precise biopsy guidance when necessary.

It is particularly important for monitoring changes in breast tissue over time, especially in women at higher risk for breast cancer, and for determining the extent of cancer spread to the axillary region, making it essential for effective preventive care and treatment planning.This test is recommended as part of regular check-ups for breast health or during menopause; individuals are advised to consult with a doctor beforehand to assess their risk factors and prior medical history.
