Abstract
In the last 30 years, ultrasound (US) has become the most important adjunctive imaging modality for breast evaluation. The use of US for breast evaluation took off in the early 1980s with the introduction of digital technology, which delivered improved resolution over analog systems. 1 Since then, continued progress in transducer piezoelectric crystal development, signal processing and beam-forming technology has brought US examination of the breast from a tool for merely differentiating cystic from solid masses to a sensitive methodofdiagnosingmalignancyandacommonmethodfor guiding biopsies. In this work we discuss the advances that have become standard as well as innovations poised to further improve accuracy for breast lesion diagnosis.
