Sample images show cancer detection at supplemental ultrasound screening after screening mammography with a negative result. (A) Craniocaudal right breast screening mammography shows negative findings in a 54-year-old female patient with extremely dense breast tissue. (B) Coronal view from supplemental screening with automated whole-breast ultrasound image in the same patient four months later shows an irregular hypoechoic mass (dashed yellow circle) in the right breast, diagnosed as invasive ductal carcinoma. (C) Craniocaudal screening right breast mammography shows negative findings in a 74-year-old patient with heterogeneously dense breast tissue. (D) Antiradial gray-scale image in the right breast from supplemental handheld screening ultrasound in the same 74-year-old patient 7 months later demonstrates an irregular hypoechoic mass in the right breast (yellow outline), which yielded a diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma.
