Breast Ultrasound
Queensland Radiology Specialists provides high-resolution breast ultrasound for accurate assessment of breast tissue, lumps, and other abnormalities. Performed by experienced sonographers, this non-invasive and radiation-free imaging is a key tool for breast health evaluation.
Availability: Breast ultrasound is available at all of our clinic locations.
What Is a Breast Ultrasound?
Breast ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of breast tissue.
It is commonly used to:
- Investigate lumps or masses detected by self-exam or mammography
- Evaluate cysts, fibroadenomas, or other benign conditions
- Assess breast pain or inflammation
- Guide biopsies or aspirations
- Complement mammography for dense breast tissue
Breast ultrasound is safe, quick, and highly effective for diagnosing breast conditions and guiding treatment.
