Confused about which method to choose when further testing is needed?

What is an ultrasound? What is a mammogram?

A mammography uses low-dose X-ray to produce breast images known as a mammogram. A mammography is preferred in women older than 45 years.

Therefore, the investigation best suited to you depends on your age, your symptoms, and the structure of your breasts.

 

當需要進一步檢查時,對選擇哪種方法感到困惑?什麼是超聲檢查?什麼是乳房X光檢查?

 

超聲檢查使用高頻聲波在乳房上,並將其轉換為圖像。乳房X光檢查使用低劑量的X射線來產生乳房圖像,稱為乳房X光檢查。

 

根據經驗,乳房超聲檢查對45歲以下的婦女更準確。  對於45歲以上的婦女,乳房X光檢查是首選。

 

因此,最適合你的調查取決於你的年齡、你的症狀和你的乳房結構。
