Breast sonography plays an important role in both primary and secondary screening for breast cancer. It can detect carcinomas missed by mammography due to a lack of calcification or dense breast tissue. Sonography guidelines outline standardized documentation and a BI-RADS assessment system to communicate risk levels. Common benign findings include simple cysts, fibroadenomas, and fibrocystic changes. Malignant lesions demonstrate signs like an irregular mass, spiculated margins, or architectural distortion. Sonography helps diagnose palpable lumps and guides biopsies of suspicious findings while avoiding unnecessary procedures for clearly benign lesions.
