The mean strain index for malignant lesions was significantly higher than that for benign lesions (P less then .05). The highest sensitivity was found for B-mode US, and the highest specificity was found for the strain index. The diagnostic performance of the strain index was higher than that of the 5-point scoring method. CONCLUSIONS The addition of a sonoelastographic examination to B-mode US prevents unnecessary biopsies. The strain index was found to be superior to the 5-point scoring method to a limited extent. © 2020 by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine.Our article depicts and interrogates the claims for seeing coaching and mentoring as being distinct from each other, and rather suggests that context is agentic in determining which aspects of these two helping orientations are likely to be used by practitioners. To start with, our article traces the development of coaching and mentoring as two separate discourses. Traditionally, coaching has been associated with a shorter term performance focus, with the coach portrayed as a process- rather than a content knowledge-based expert. By contrast, mentoring has a longer-term holistic focus, where the mentor has direct experience and knowledge in the setting that the mentee is operating in. Then, we discuss some limitations of seeking conceptual distinctiveness in purely theoretical terms, including accentuating differences of practices that cannot easily be disentangled from each other in practice. Therefore, on the basis of a case study, where coaching and mentoring behaviors are used by leaders and managers, we argue that context plays an agentic role and influences which of the helping orientations is used by practitioners. We conclude that, context being multifaceted, it leads to a kaleidoscope of coaching/mentoring behaviors, which supports a prac
