When it comes to diagnosing the breast cancer through alternative methods, ultrasonography is often named. Rather than screen for breast cancer, ultrasonography is used to diagnose breast cancer. It is often used to know if the problem area is a solid mass of some sort or a common fluid-filled cyst in a woman who has a lump in her breast.

Nevertheless, due to its being not as good as mammography in identifying small cancers, it is not thought to be a sufficient alternative for breast screening by mammography. On the other hand, early stage invasive breast cancers in women who have dense breast is often identified by ultrasonography when those cancers are hidden and too small to be felt by milk duct tissue on mammogram.
