Figure 5. Split-screen sonogram obtained in a 31-year-old woman with focal breast thickening shows the noncompressed (NON COMP) fat lobule (short curved arrows) on the left screen compared with the same lobule in the compressed (COMP) state (long curved arrows) on the right screen; these findings suggest a type 5 tissue pattern and that there is no underlying isoechoic pathologic process.
