A NABL & NABH Accredited Diagnostic Centre, praised for its Advanced Radiology & Diagnostic Imaging Services, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, offers you the Colour Doppler Both Breasts Ultrasound services. This non-invasive ultrasound examination allows the use of colour Doppler and therefore information about blood flow can be gained within breast tissues and selected breast lesions. It could aid medical professionals to assess breast lumps, swelling, inflammatory changes, and other abnormalities in addition to standard breast ultrasound results.

About Colour Doppler Both Breasts

Colour Doppler ultrasound of both breasts is the association of breast ultrasonography with Doppler imaging used to evaluate blood flow in the breast (blood velocity) and to detect abnormal flow. It may help provide additional information about a lump or lesion's vascularity, helping the doctor to correlate images with symptoms and all investigations.

What Is Colour Doppler for Both Breasts?

A diagnostic imaging procedure that assesses blood flow and enlargements of breast tissue. Moreover, ultrasound is not based on ionizing radiation as X-rays are. Doppler imaging is used to show blood flow in vessels and can be helpful in recognising some abnormalities of the breast. It is typically performed in conjunction with routine breast ultrasound and will not be able to determine the nature (benign or malignant) of the lesion.

Common Reasons for Colour Doppler in Both Breasts

• Evaluation of a palpable breast lump or mass.
• Assessment of breast pain, swelling, or tenderness.
• Further evaluation of a lesion identified on breast ultrasound.
• Assessment of blood flow within selected breast abnormalities.
• Investigation of suspected inflammatory changes, including mastitis or an abscess.
• Evaluation of changes in breast tissue or a previously identified abnormality.
• Follow-up of selected breast lesions when clinically indicated.

Conditions and Abnormalities Evaluated

Breast Lumps and Masses

When a conventional ultrasound is supplemented with Colour Doppler, this can be used to help evaluate blood flow through a breast lump. The results could be useful for further evaluation but are not sufficient to diagnose malignancy.

Breast Cysts and Solid Lesions

Ultrasound can be helpful to differentiate fluid-filled cysts from solid tumors. If applicable, Doppler imaging can give further data regarding the vascularity.

Mastitis and Breast Abscess

The exam can be useful to assess inflammatory changes and aid with the assessment of a suspected breast abscess.

Vascular Abnormalities

Sometimes Doppler imaging can be helpful with some types of vascular abnormalities in the breast.

Other Breast Tissue Changes

The exam can be used to help determine the cause of some structural abnormalities noted during clinical exam or imaging tests.
