Mammographic Findings of Lactation Breasts
|
|

Abstract
|
|
|
Lactating breasts are generally known to provide limited information because of the markedly proliferated glandular tissue similar to dense breasts. We analyzed the mammographic findings of 15 women in lactating states and compared to the 15
normal
women and 15 women with dense breasts. Mammography of lactating breasts showed its own characteristic prominent lobulation. However, trabeculation and general glandular density are not significantly different from dense breasts. This results in
the
same limitation with dense breasts in radiological diagnosis. Mammographic evaluation during lactation should be deferred unless otherwise justified.
