Abstract:
In recent years, the incidence rate of breast cancer has increased rapidly and is tending to be younger. The application of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) can reduce the tumor stage, which is conducive to surgical resection or breast conserving surgery. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the curative effect of NAC in breast cancer by imaging for the choice of operation timing. In recent years, with the rapid development of new ultrasound technologies such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound and elastography, these new technologies can provide more abundant imaging information and basis for individualized treatment of breast cancer, which has become a research hotspot of the curative effect of breast cancer NAC. This article reviews the research progress of new ultrasound technology in evaluating the curative effect of NAC in breast cancer in recent years.
