Abstract
The Study was done in 200 female patients with various breast lesions by using six parameters. In the study of incidence of breast lesions in relation with age it was found that the vulnerable age groups for the different lesions of breast were between 40-49, 50-59 years. Regarding the site of lesion, the author found the upper outer quadrant was vulnerable for all types of lesions especially in left side. Comparing the accuracy of diagnostic procedure of mammography and ultrasonography, the mammogram showed only 86% accuracy with some false positive cases, whereas ultrasonography showed high percentage of accuracy, and also was simplest technique, comparatively cheaper and so widely used over the mammogram
