Overview
Ultrasonography is an important imaging approach in diagnosing and surgical treatment of breast abscess.
Ultrasound
- Ultrasonography is mainly used to differentiate between the different diseases causing breast lumps. It is also used in abscess needle aspiration guiding.[1]
- Breast abscess on chest ultrasonography appears like medium sized collections with not well defined margins and may have some areas with increased density.[2]
- There is no vascularity in the US image.
