Chest X-ray
can be used to check the breast, but it is generally not recommended to choose this examination first. Chest
X-ray is used to scan the chest, and images are generated according to the obtained signals. Usually, this examination is sensitive to bones, chest, heart vessels, etc., and less sensitive to breast tissue. However, when breast masses appear with fibrosis, chest X-ray may be detected, but chest X-ray cannot diagnose other breast lesions.If breast discomfort occurs, color Doppler ultrasound and mammography should be selected, which are sensitive to breast soft tissue and help to detect lesions.
