Ultrasound senses 'feel' of breast lesions

romboses, Nightingale said.

Doctors currently use conventional palpation to detect such thromboses. But "you have to compress the clots quite a bit in order to evaluate them, and this can cause clots to dislodge, which is dangerous," she added.

Exploring such other uses for ARFI imaging, which Nightingale said might require different ultrasound frequencies and different transducers, is still in the future. "Right now, we're focusing on the breast," she said.
