From: Do automated breast ultrasound and tomosynthesis have an effective role in dense breast evaluation?

Fig. 4

A and B: Digital Mx CC and MLO views of the right breast show an oval-shaped circumscribed high-density UOQ mass with no associated skin thickening. C and D: Tomosynthesis CC and MLO views of the right breast confirmed the mammographic findings, however, with better delineation of the margins (BIRADS IV). E: Automated ultrasound right AP coronal image shows small focal defect at distance 28.3 mm from the nipple. F: Automated ultrasound image shows a right rather well-defined mass, non-parallel orientation and heterogeneous echo pattern (BIRADS V). Core biopsy was done and revealed adenocarcinoma. Automated ultrasound was superior to tomosynthesis in characterization of the lesion, while tomosynthesis was superior in detection of right axillary lymphadenopathy
