Summary:
This article discusses the use of ultrasound as a supplement to mammography in breast cancer screening. It highlights the benefits of using ultrasound, such as increased diagnostic yield and lower economic cost, and the potential of 3D ultrasound to improve understanding of spatial anatomical relationships. However, implementing 3D ultrasound in screening may increase radiologists’ workload and lead to potential errors. The article suggests the use of techniques to assist radiologists in reading 3D ultrasound images for more efficient and accurate screening.
