CIS: carcinoma in situ. With ultrasound, the appearance of PAP depends on its size and extension to the ducts. When PAP is not associated with lactiferous duct dilatation, its appearance is difficult to differentiate from a benign breast nodule such as FA. A papilloma is easily identified wit...
Imaging FindingsComplex cystic and solid masses (CCSMs) contain both cystic and solid elements that may manifest sonographically as predominantly cystic lesions with solid mural nodule(s) or thick irregular walls, thick septations with or without perceptible internal vascularity, or be predominantly ...
CONCLUSIONS: Galactoceles have various sonographic findings, many of which are similar to those of suspicious solid breast masses. However, there is a tendency for a galactocele to appear as a small, round hypoechoic nodule with an indistinct or microlobulated margin and mild posterior shadowing. ...
Conclusions: Older age, high BMI, patients with a breastfeeding history, and those who exhibit the following specific nodule characteristics were most often linked to false positive results: large tumors with posterior acoustic shadowing and high elasticity scores, accompanied by reactive adenopathy. On...

Ultrasound examination found 3.4 cm and 1.4 cm isoechoic nodules in the right and left thyroid lobes, respectively. The right lobe mass was distinctively accompanied by a 2.1 cm hypoechoic nodule with cystic changes and “nodule in nodule” appearance, and it was interpreted as an intermediate ...
