Mammary sonography is the examination of the breast with the help of the ultrasound B-scan procedure. It is used in medical diagnostics as a supplement to palpation and X-ray mammography.The possibilities and limits of the B-scan procedure can be examined and the basic handling of an ultrasound B-scan device trained using the example of two realistic breast replicas.Both breast models are made of a material that simulates the haptic properties of real soft tissue and enables ultrasound images with tissue-like texture and echogenicity. One of the breast replicas has fluid-filled, non-palpable cysts and the other has malignant, palpable tumours.
