Ultrasound, breast, unilateral, complete and include examination of all four quadrants of the breast and the retroareolar region

AI EXPLANATION: A breast ultrasound is an outpatient imaging exam that uses high-frequency sound waves to create visual images of breast tissue. In a complete unilateral evaluation, an imaging specialist examines all four quadrants of one breast along with the retroareolar region, which is the tissue directly behind the nipple and areola. The test does not use radiation and is commonly performed to evaluate targeted areas of concern.
