Ultrasound-guided Breast Reduction

Mammaplasty or Breast reduction is a surgery that involves the removal of extra breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin in order to attain a breast size that is more in proportion to the body and to relieve the discomfort that comes with having overly big breasts (macromastia).

Breasts that are too big can give people both physical and mental pain. Indeed, the weight of the breasts in patients with macromastia can cause physical pain.

Because of their pain, some people may find it difficult to do routine physical chores. As a result of their big breasts, some patients may experience emotional discomfort or more serious mental health problems in addition to the physical symptoms of macromastia.

Safe Mammaplasty Guided by Ultrasound Monitoring is achieved by using an ultrasound scanner to accurately monitor the cannula level and keep the injection (if needed) location in a safe place.

Which ULtrasound Scanner is the best to be used?

To avoid injuring the deep arteries and decreasing the risk of significant problems, an ultrasonic probe with a versatile depth range such as the Convex and Linear Color Doppler WiFi Double Head Ultrasound Scanner CLCD is necessary.

CLCD is a cutting-edge wireless color ultrasound scanner. Thanks to its double-head, it is more practical and cost-effective than purchasing two separate single-headed probes. The Doppler’s Linear side is used to examine the more superficial areas of the body, while the Convex side is utilized for in-depth exams.

The Convex probe of the Color Double Head WiFi Ultrasound Scanner has a 3.5 to 5 MHz frequency, which can go deep from 40 to 200 mm to better monitor and diagnosis

While the Color Double Head WiFi Ultrasound Scanner’s  Linear side Frequency goes from 40 to 100 mm. Its frequency varies from 7.5 to 10 MHz. Physicians use this Probe to visualize and exam the Breast. 

Ultrasonography is a technique for evaluating breast tissue and determining whether or not a patient is a good surgical candidate. When conducted by a surgeon who is familiar with the procedure, the use of ultrasound to accomplish breast reduction is indeed safe and successful for chosen individuals.
