Abstract
Breast mass is one of the clinical signs of breast lesions. Clinically, breast tumors can occur in breast cancer, breast tuberculosis, breast duct dilatation, breast cysts, breast fibroadenoma, and breast hyperplasia. Its pathogenesis is not clear. The occurrence of breast lesions is related to many factors, such as diet, trauma, genetic mutations, inheritance, endocrine disorders, breast development, and chronic stimuli. With the continuous improvement of examination equipment and continuous improvement of the treatment level, the incidence of breast masses is increasing. For a long time, clinicians have mostly used hand palpation methods to complete the diagnosis of breast masses based on the relatively hard properties of breast masses and adjacent tissues. It is more difficult to diagnose patients based on their clinical symptoms and signs, and it is easy to miss the diagnosis. Choosing the appropriate diagnostic method to confirm breast mass disease has become the first task for the diagnosis and treatment of breast mass. Ultrasound elastography is a new ultrasound examination method. It diagnoses the elasticity and hardness of breast masses by using corresponding characteristics. The imaging principle is to apply pressure to the tissue at the lesion site to determine its elasticity and hardness to identify the nature of the tumor. This article explores the clinical value of ultrasound elastography in the effective diagnosis of breast masses. Compared with the diagnosis results of ordinary ultrasound, the parameters such as the position, shape, size, boundary, internal echo, and rear echo of the focused mass were observed. Facts have proved that elastography can be used to make a qualitative differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast masses from another angle according to the different characteristics of the hardness of the tissue being examined. It is non-invasive, non-radiative, low-cost, and easy for patients to accept. Provide valuable clinical diagnosis basis for early detection and treatment of breast masses.
