Diagnostic value of ultrasonographic features in breast cancer and its correlation with hormone receptor expression

The performance of ultrasound elastography is promising for BC diagnosis, and the association with hormone receptor status is highly significant. Further confirming that the elasticity score has significant clinical value for the diagnosis of malignant breast lesions, in addition to the fact that hormone receptor levels are independent of elasticity score, we can conclude that the elasticity score and hormone receptor levels are two distinct factors for malignant lesions.
