Differential diagnostic performance of acoustic radiation force impulse imaging in small (≤20 mm) breast cancers: Is it valuable?
Abstract To evaluate acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) inthe differential diagnosis of small (≤20 mm) solid breast lesions and identify the most efficient ARFI parameters. Conventional ultrasonography and ARFIwere performed in 120 patients with 121 small solid breast lesions. The area ratios (...
