Résumé
Objective To compare patients'satisfaction and comfort associated with automated breast volume scanner(ABVS),handheld ultrasound(HHUS)and mammography(MMG).Methods Five hundred and twenty-eight women who performed ABVS examination and previously had undergone MMG and HHUS were enrolled.BMI,bra size,with or without lesion,lesion size,pain score of MMG,ABVS and HHUS were documented and analyzed.Results The pain score of MMG was significantly higher than that of ABVS[4.0(2.0,6.0)vs 2.0(1.0,4.0)](P <0.05).92.4% of the cases were preferred for the ABVS examination,which was higher than that for the MMG(45.5%),and was similar to HHUS(94.7%).Bra size,BMI,with or without lesion and lesion size could affect the pain degree of ABVS.Conclusions Routine use of ABVS will be well tolerated by patients than MMG.
