Ultrasound detects more cancers in high-risk women with dense breasts
Supplemental breast ultrasound may have utility in imaging women with dense breasts and high risk of advanced or invasive breast cancer.
August 6, 2024
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.

Cryoablation safe, effective in treating soft-tissue sarcoma
Percutaneous cryoablation is safe and effective for patients with recurrent or metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma after earlier treatments.

(A) Axial noncontrast CT chest image shows soft tissue mass in the anterior chest wall (arrow). The lesion was treated by percutaneous cryoablation. (B) Intraprocedural axial CT image obtained during cryoablation. The pink outline represents the target lesion and the blue outline represents ice ball. Based on review, the procedure was classified as achieving adequate ablation. (C) Axial contrast-enhanced CT chest image, obtained three months after ablation (patient’s first follow-up exam), shows involution of the target lesion without evidence of residue.
