ABSTRACT
To know the usefulness of color and spectral doppler in evaluation of solid breast masses using vascularity and resistive index. We performed duplex doppler sonography on 100 patients presenting with breast mass. Resistive index and vascularity of the vessels were detected and analyzed and correlated with histopathological results. 70% of the benign lesions were found having ri below 0.8 and 45 out of 50 patients had low vascularity.43 malignant lesions had high vascularity and 80% had ri above 0.8. High flow visualization on power doppler and indicates a higher possibility of malignancy lesions with ri greater than 0.8 gives high probability of malignancy
