The interpretation of the same elastographic images may be variable according to reviewers. Because breast lesions are usually reported according to American College of Radiology Breast Imaging and Data System (ACR BI-RADS) lexicons and final category, we tried to ...
متن کاملStrain histograms are equal to strain ratios in predicting malignancy in breast tumours
OBJECTIVES To assess whether strain histograms are equal to strain ratios in predicting breast tumour malignancy and to see if either could be used to upgrade Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) 3 tumours for immediate biopsy. METHODS Ninety-nine breast tumours were examined using B-mode BI-RADS scorings and strain elastography. Strain histograms and ratios were assessed, and a...
متن کاملBI-RADS categorization as a predictor of malignancy.
PURPOSE To determine the positive predictive value (PPV) of the American College of Radiology Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories 0, 2, 3, 4, and 5 by using BI-RADS terminology and by auditing data on needle localizations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between April 1991 and December 1996, 1,400 mammographically guided needle localizations were performed in 1,109 patients. I...
