Abstract
Ultrasound is the modality of choice for imaging breast masses. Most benign and malignant lesions can be accurately categorized as a result of improvements in grey scale imaging and the development of sensitive colour Doppler vascular mapping. Ultrasound contrast agents, harmonic imaging, elasticity imaging and other advances will further enhance the utility of breast ultrasound.
