Abstract
The examiner has to scan the whole breast, detect lesions, diagnose them, and record images during breast ultrasonic examinations. Therefore, the examiner has to acquire the technical skills of examination, the ability to detect lesions, and the ability to diagnose them. In addition, the examiner has to understand the role of each mode (e.g., B mode, color Doppler, elastography), and perform comprehensive diagnosis. Experience with many examinations and knowing the pathological diagnosis are needed to achieve excellent diagnostic performance.
