December 12, 2025
Images depict a 50-year-old woman with a lesion detected during screening ultrasound. (A) Transverse and (B) longitudinal images reveal a 0.5-cm hypoechoic lesion (arrow) in the left breast. (C) Transverse color Doppler ultrasound image does not show an increase in vascularity.

Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy and subsequent pathologic examination confirmed a nonproliferative breast change.
