Targeted sonography detected nearly half (46%) of MRI lesions evaluated, with depiction being most frequent for masses. Sonographically occult lesions had a probability of malignancy (22%), which warrants biopsy despite lack of sonographic detection
Connie Lehman's paper reflects our own experience that we often only find 50% of suspicious masses on 2nd look ultrasound.
