Breast Ultrasound in Glendale, California
Targeted, radiation-free imaging to evaluate a lump, a mammogram finding or dense tissue, often the next step after a mammogram, and safe during pregnancy.
What is a breast ultrasound?
A breast ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce live images of breast tissue. Its greatest strength is telling a fluid-filled cyst apart from a solid mass, a distinction a mammogram alone often cannot make.
At our Glendale center it is commonly used to evaluate a palpable lump, clarify a mammogram finding, look through dense tissue, and to guide a needle precisely during a biopsy when one is needed.
