Our results showed that differences exist in the sonographic features of screening-detected and symptomatic DCIS. Recognition of the many and varied sonographic appearances of DCIS might be helpful to decrease the false-negative rate of bilateral whole-breast sonography and to detect symptomatic mammographically occult DCIS when we use sonography to supplement mammography
