Objective: This study aims to investigate and analyze the detection rate of breast cancer utilizing color Doppler ultrasonography in asymptomatic individuals.
Methods: A cohort of 500 female patients who underwent physical examinations at our hospital from January 2018 to August 2020 was selected for this research. The diagnosis involved conventional surgical palpation and color Doppler ultrasound in all cases. The control group underwent conventional surgical palpation, while the study group utilized the color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis method. A comparative analysis of the results obtained by both methods was conducted, involving observation and recording of all detected objects.
Results: The study group demonstrated a significantly higher detection rate of hyperplasia (40.20%) and nodules (19.00%) compared to the control group (32.60%, 12.40%) (P < .05). Biopsy or surgical resection of tissue samples from 200 subjects revealed nine cases of breast cancer and 191 cases without breast cancer. In comparison to pathological examination, color Doppler ultrasonography exhibited increased accuracy (95.50%) and sensitivity (100.00%) with a specificity of 95.29%. Analysis of color Doppler ultrasound images from five subjects demonstrated its intuitive and effective use in diagnosing breast mass characteristics and understanding tissue morphology, edges, and size.
Conclusions: The application of color Doppler ultrasound in the physical examination of healthy individuals proves effective in breast cancer screening. It provides a clear display of breast disease symptoms, offering an essential imaging foundation for cancer diagnosis. Clinically feasible, it is recommended as a routine examination method for widespread use across the clinical spectrum.
