Breast Examination Program: An Important Defense Line for Women’s Health

On the road of caring for women’s health, breast examination projects are like a solid line of defense, escorting women’s beauty and life. The first is the doctor’s palpation. The doctor palpates the breast in a professional and gentle manner. This simple but crucial step can initially sense whether there is a lump in the breast. By feeling the size, texture, activity and tenderness of the mass, it can provide important clues for the follow-up in-depth examination. Breast ultrasound is like a silent guardian. It has no radiation, simple operation and relatively affordable price, and can be carried out many times. It can clearly show the internal structure of the breast and accurately detect the masses, cysts and other lesions in the breast. At the same time, the blood flow of the mass was observed to provide a strong basis for judging the nature of the mass. Mammography is highly sensitive to small calcifications in the breast. It is like a sophisticated detector that can detect early breast cancer lesions, especially those occult cancers with small calcifications as the main manifestation. However, although the effect of molybdenum target examination is remarkable, it is not suitable for frequent examination because of certain radiation. Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with its ultra-high soft tissue resolution, provides a powerful help for the diagnosis of complex breast lesions. For breast intraductal lesions, multifocal lesions and other difficult conditions, MRI examination can present more detailed breast images to help doctors make more accurate judgments. However, it also has the disadvantages of high cost and long inspection time. Galactography is useful in special circumstances. It mainly aims at the pathological changes in the mammary duct, clearly showing the shape and structure of the mammary duct, as well as whether there are abnormalities such as blockage and expansion. Breast biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of breast cancer. When suspicious lesions are found in breast examination, a small amount of breast tissue is taken out by puncture for pathological examination to clarify the nature of the lesions and provide the most accurate basis for the formulation of treatment plans. In short, these breast examination projects have their own characteristics, and together build a solid fortress to protect women’s breast health. Let’s pay attention to breast examination and build a healthy foundation for women’s happy life.
