    "description": "A full ultrasound survey of one breast, sweeping through all quadrants and the tissue behind the nipple, with images documented. The distinction from the limited breast ultrasound is coverage rather than technique: this study examines the whole breast systematically instead of concentrating on one spot. Nearby armpit lymph nodes are commonly assessed as part of the same look.",
