Forty lesions (88.9%, 40\/45) extended in a parallel orientation and five extended in a non-parallel orientation. Calcifications were found in eight cases, including six macrocalcifications and two microcalcifications. Enlarged axillary lymph nodes were observed in three cases (6.7%, 3\/45). In addition, 44 of the 45 cases (97.8%, 44\/45) exhibited hypovascularity or avascularity according to color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>BTB lesions can be classified as nodular, abscess, or sinus type according to their US imaging features.
