  • Screening Breast Ultrasound

    A breast screening ultrasound is a comprehensive scan of the entire breast and armpit areas. This type of scan is for women who want to ensure everything looks healthy and normal, even if they don’t have any specific concerns or symptoms, or have dense breast.

    Screenings can be a proactive way to monitor breast health regularly.

    Approx. 30 minutes | $395

  • Diagnostic Breast Ultrasound

    A diagnostic breast ultrasound focuses on a specific area of concern. This scan is typically performed when there’s something noticeable, such as a lump, localized pain, itching, or any other unusual symptom. The goal is to evaluate the particular region where the issue has been identified to provide a more targeted assessment.

Schedule Your Appointment

What to expect during your appointment:

When your technican arrives, you’ll be provided with a disposable paper gown and asked to undress from the waist up. Once you’ve put on the gown, you’ll lie down in a comfortable position, usually on your back, with one arm raised above your head to allow for clear imaging. Depending on the size or positioning of your breast, you may occasionally be asked to turn onto your side. A gel will be applied to the area to ensure accurate imaging. The procedure is non-invasive, painless, and typically takes 20-30 minutes. Throughout the process, our professional will guide you through each step and answer any questions you may have.

What to expect after your appointment:

After your scan, the results will be reviewed by a radiologist and provided to you within 24 hours. We’ll also guide you on the next steps if further evaluation or follow-up care is recommended. If you have any concerns or questions after receiving your results, our team is here to support you.

What to expect before the appointment:

After booking your appointment, you’ll receive a confirmation email or text with all the details, including the date, time, and any preparations needed. We’ll also send a reminder closer to your appointment date. If you have any questions or need to reschedule, our team is always available to assist.

Early detection through comprehensive breast screening is key when treating breast cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, the 5-year survival rate is approximately 99% when breast cancer is localized and detected early.

What are Breast Ultrasounds?

A breast ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging test that uses sound waves to determine whether a breast lump is a solid mass or filled with fluid (a cyst). Breast ultrasounds do not use radiation. Instead, sound waves produce an image of the breast’s internal structures. While a breast ultrasound doesn’t replace the need for a mammogram, this form of breast screening can check for abnormal results.

A breast ultrasound is currently the only noninvasive test to determine if an abnormal mass is a cyst.

Why do a Breast Ultrasound ?

Breast ultrasounds are often performed to evaluate issues detected during a routine physical exam or mammogram. A breast ultrasound is the appropriate next step if your mammogram detects an abnormal mass or your physician feels a lump during a manual breast exam. 

While most masses are benign, early detection of breast cancer dramatically improves overall outcomes. In women with a breast cancer diagnosis, a breast ultrasound is used to examine the lymph nodes under the arms, indicating whether the cancer has spread.

Breast ultrasound is also the preferred diagnostic test for younger women, who naturally have dense breast tissue and abundant milk glands. Breast density, or fibroglandular density, refers to the proportion of glandular, connective, and fatty tissues in the breast. Women with dense breasts have a higher amount of non-fatty tissue. Dense glandular tissue is difficult to distinguish from cancerous masses on a traditional mammogram, and a breast ultrasound can provide a clearer image.
