Abstract
In 1952 Wild and Reid performed the initial studies that laid the groundwork for the development of breast sonography. The Japanese groups of Wagai and Kobayashi and the Australian groups of Kossoff and Jellins published the first clinically important results in the early 1970s. Their work stimulated a widespread implementation and refinement of breast sonography using real-time instrumentation. Today, computer-controlled systems have given ultrasound an established place in the diagnosis of breast diseases and have made it competitive with other noninvasive modalities.
