Why a need for ultrasound after a mammogram?
Ultrasound is often used after a mammogram to provide additional imaging when a suspicious area is identified. It helps differentiate between solid masses and fluid-filled cysts, which can aid in determining the nature of a breast abnormality. Additionally, ultrasound can be useful for guiding biopsies or assessing areas that are difficult to evaluate with mammography alone, especially in women with dense breast tissue. Ultimately, it enhances diagnostic accuracy and can help in early detection of breast cancer.

Do a mammogram and ultrasound always catch breast cancer?
Mammogram and ultrasound can't catch every abnormal or cancerous cell in the breast, but they do a good job of detecting important groups of abnormal cells. Talk with your health care provider if you feel you are at higher risk of breast cancer. Your provider may be able to discuss strategies for screening and risk modification.
