Introduction. Breast cancer in the structure of malignancies in women takes the 1st place. There has been an annual increase in morbidity, including due to improvements in diagnostic interventions and screening. Mammography and ultrasound of the breasts is mandatory when diagnosing breast cancer. The difficulties of diagnosis are revealed in small tumors.Methods. Breast ultrasounds were performed on the ultrasound machines of the expert class TOSHIBA APLIO 500, PHILIPS EPIQ 5 and PHILIPS EPIQ 7. Mammography and tomosynthesis were performed on mammogram MAMMOMAT INSPITATION PRIME. Core-biopsia under ultrasound control was carried out on the Logiq9 ultrasound scanner. Eighty women were selected with suspected cancer after breast core-biopsy with the category BI-RADS 3, 4 and 5. The size of the node according to ultrasound data was 6-10 mm.Results. According to core-biopsia has been identified cancer, histologically and immunohystochemically confirmed in 50 cases. In 30 women benign tumors were identified. The most informative mammograms of breast cancer were high tumor density, ray of radiibility and local deformity of soft tissues. Among the characteristic ultrasonic signs of the cancer more often noted vertical orientation, reduced echogenicity, uneven contour, other signs were not so character for the cancer.Conclusion. You can't focus on a separate sign of education! Only a combination of traits, different diagnostic methods contribute to the correct diagnosis.
