A Prospective Two Center Study Comparing Breast Cancer Lesion Size Defined by 2D Shear Wave Elastography, B-Mode Ultrasound, and Mammography with the Histopathological Size.
CONCLUSION: 2 D SWE predicted lesion size more precisely than B-mode ultrasound or mammography. In cases of invasive lobular carcinoma, all three imaging methods underestimated lesion size, with 2 D SWE coming closest to the actual tumor size.
