Volumetric Breast Ultrasound as a Screening Modality in Mammographically Dense Breasts
This investigation is part of an ongoing large scale study using volumetric breast ultrasound (VBUS) as a screening modality in mammographically dense breasts, offering a substantial benefit to MR imaging of the breast in terms of cost and efficiency. The addition of VBUS to mammography in women with greater than 50% breast density resulted in the detection of 12.3 per 1,000 breast cancers, com...
متن کاملUltrasound Demonstration of Mammographically Detected Microcalcifications in Patients with Ductal Carcinoma in situ of the Breast.
BACKGROUND Breast microcalcifications are difficult to depict by ultrasound (US). However, recent advances in US equipment and the refinement of breast imaging techniques have improved the detection and characterization of small breast lesions. The present study attempts to determine whether US examination is able to demonstrate nonpalpable breast lesions associated with mammographically detect...
متن کاملBreast cancer detection using sonography in women with mammographically dense breasts
BACKGROUND Mammography, the gold standard for breast cancer screening misses some cancers, especially in women with dense breasts. Breast ultrasonography as a supplementary imaging tool for further evaluation of symptomatic women with mammographically dense breasts may improve the detection of mass lesions otherwise missed at mammography. The purpose of this study was to determine the increment...
متن کاملDedicated dual-head gamma imaging for breast cancer screening in women with mammographically dense breasts.
PURPOSE To compare performance characteristics of dedicated dual-head gamma imaging and mammography in screening women with mammographically dense breasts. MATERIALS AND METHODS Asymptomatic women (n = 1007) who had heterogeneously or extremely dense breasts on prior mammograms and additional risk factors provided informed consent to enroll in an institutional review board-approved HIPAA-comp...
متن کاملTargeted Ultrasound for MR-Detected Lesions in Breast Cancer Patients
OBJECTIVE To investigate the usefulness of targeted ultrasound (US) in the identification of additional suspicious lesions found by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in breast cancer patients and the changes in treatment based on the identification of the lesions by the use of targeted US. MATERIALS AND METHODS One-hundred forty nine patients who underwent breast MR imaging for a preoperative e...
