Quantitative Multiparametric Breast Ultrasound Application of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound and Elastography Leads to an Improved Differentiation of Benign and Malignant Lesions

摘要

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate breast multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS) and its potential to reduce unnecessary breast biopsies with 1, 2, or 3 additional quantitative parameters (Doppler, elastography, and contrastenhanced ultrasound [CEUS]) to B-mode and investigate possible variationswith different reader experience.
