PURPOSE: To analyze the diagnostic accuracy of mammography, ultrasonography (US), and both methods combined in evaluation of palpable noncalcified breast tumors. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Mammograms and sonograms of 200 patients with palpable noncalcified breast masses were retrospectively analyzed independently by four experienced radiologists in 3 sessions: Mammography or US interpretations in the first two and combined reading in the last session. Nonneoplastic abnormalities and mammographically obvious cancers were excluded. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were performed for 115 (60 benign and 55 malignant) tumors and subgroups according to tissue density and tumor size. A single ROC curve for each diagnostic test was obtained by pooling the individual ratings. The area under the ROC curve was used as a measure of diagnostic performance. RESULTS: US revealed significantly higher diagnostic performance than mammography for tumors larger than 2 cm. Combined reading showed significantly higher performance than mammography except for tumors smaller than 2 cm. The performance of all three tests was reduced in dense parenchyma, and significantly so for mammographic and combined interpretation. CONCLUSION: The accuracy of US in patients with palpable mammographically noncalcified and not obviously malignant breast tumors is lower than reported for mixed sample populations. The accuracy of US may be influenced by breast parenchyma density. Combined reading offers the highest diagnostic accuracy. 相似文献

Purpose
To use the BI-RADS ultrasound classification in an intraobserver retrospective study of the interpretation of breast images.Materials and Methods
The study used 40 breast ultrasound images recorded in orthogonal planes, obtained from patients with an indication for surgery. Eight professionals experienced in breast imaging analysis retrospectively reviewed these lesions, in three rounds of image interpretation (with a 3-6 months interval between rounds). Observers had no access to information from medical records or histopathological results, and, without their knowledge, in each new round were assigned the same images previously interpreted by them. Fleiss-modified Kappa measures were the study main concordance index. Besides the BI-RADS, a scale grouping its categories 2-3 and 4-5 was also used. The statistical analysis concerned the intraobserver agreement.Results
Kappa values ranged from 0.37 to 0.75 (original categories) and from 0.73 to 0.87 (grouped categories). Overall, out of the 8 observers, 7 presented moderate to substantial concordance (Kappa values 0.51 to 0.74).Conclusion
The BI-RADS is a reporting tool that provides a standardized terminology for US exams. In this study, moderate to substantial concordance in Kappa values was found, in agreement with other studies of the literature. 相似文献3.

OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to determine the negative predictive value of sonography with mammography in evaluating palpable breast lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Four hundred twenty patients with 455 palpable breast lesions were retrospectively identified from our mammography database as having negative mammographic and sonographic results. For patients diagnosed with breast cancer, images and medical records were reviewed to determine whether the palpable lesion evaluated on sonography and mammography corresponded to the patient's breast cancer. On the basis of the number of breast cancers that correlated to the palpable areas imaged, the negative predictive value of sonography with mammography was determined. RESULTS: Sixty-two of the 420 patients in the study group were already diagnosed with breast carcinoma, and eight new carcinomas were diagnosed during the study period. Only one of six ipsilateral cancers corresponded to a palpable lesion that had a negative imaging evaluation. This lesion was diagnosed as an invasive lobular cancer, hard and fixed at physical examination. Imaging and clinical follow-up of the remaining patients showed no abnormality at the sites of previously investigated palpable abnormalities. The mean imaging follow-up was 25 months. The negative predictive value of sonography and mammography in the setting of a palpable lesion was 99.8%. CONCLUSION: The negative predictive value of sonography with mammography is high, and together these imaging modalities can be reassuring if follow-up is planned when the physical examination is not highly suspicious. However, if the physical examination is suspicious, biopsy should not be delayed. 相似文献

Purpose
Our study was designed to assess the role of intra-operative ultrasound (IOUS) as a method of localization of palpable or non-palpable breast tumors during breast conserving surgery (BCS) and ensuring adequate margins by comparing pathological results of these lesions to be sure if the IOUS localization is effective as a localization tool or not. We included both palpable and non-palpable to add a great effect to the BCS to ensure adequate margins that are not accurately palpated by the surgeon.Introduction
Breast conserving surgery (BCS) is an alternative to mastectomy in treatment of cancer breast. The matter of tumor localization is a problematic issue with the wire localization being the commonest with multiple drawbacks. Another method for localization which is the IOUS is investigated.Patients and methods
This prospective, controlled study enrolled 60 female patients. 30 of them comprised case group (group I) had breast conserving surgeries guided by IOUS and the other 30 patients as a control (group II) who had breast conserving surgeries without any guidance. Specimens Pathological examination was done to ensure the adequacy of free margins.Results
6 patients from the case group and 14 of the control group had involved inadequate margins.Conclusion
IOUS is an essential adjunct to surgery that should be experienced to maintain safety and cosmoses as the two major impacts of BCS. 相似文献7.

Radiologists with very limited practical experience in mammography initially achieved a low PVpos (0.50) and a high PVneg (0.95) in blind mammography of 80 patients with 85 excised and histologically examined breast tumours. After having read films from approximately 2500 patients the initial films were blindly reevaluated. PVneg was unchanged, whereas PVpos was elevated significantly (0.80). The intraobserver variation was 11.5 per cent. The actual interobserver variation was 3.2 per cent. These findings indicate that the reliability of blind mammography in patients with palpable tumours of the breast is considerable, also in case of only limited mammographic experience. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To define the role of ultrasonography (US) and fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) relative to mammography in differentiating between benign and malignant palpable solid breast lesions, and to assess the contribution of FNAB cytology to the delay between referral and the definitive diagnosis of breast cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the mammograms and US images of 84 palpable breast lesions, 63 of them also blindly. The lesions were classified as benign, indeterminate or malignant by both modalities. The results were compared with histologic diagnoses. The cytologic reports of 57 lesions were reviewed and compared to the final diagnoses. The delay from referral until diagnosis was calculated for each case. RESULTS: Eighty-one of the 84 lesions (96%) were visible as a local abnormality at US. Fifty-two of the 53 cancers were seen as a tumor (n=51) or an architectural distortion (n=1). In the blinded analysis, the sensitivity of FNAB cytology was 92%, specificity 83%, and overall accuracy 88%. There were no false-negative malignancies in the three modalities combined. The delay until the date of the final diagnosis was shorter in the group with a cytologic diagnosis positive for malignancy. CONCLUSION: Malignancy is unlikely if the US, mammographic and cytologic findings of a palpable breast lesion are all benign. Active and critical use of these three modalities could cut down the number of surgical biopsies of benign breast lesions and provide prompt surgical treatment for malignant lesions. 相似文献

Palpable breast masses arising in pediatric and adolescent patients are uncommon. A careful physical examination should be performed first, followed by an ultrasonographic evaluation when a suspect mass is present. In this study population, palpable findings were all due to benign causes, which is concordant with the literature. Benign causes included gynecomastia, cyst, fibroadenoma, lymph node, galactocele, duct ectasia, and infection. Though extremely rare, breast malignancies do occur in the pediatric and adolescent population. 相似文献

Objective. To investigate the role of MR imaging in detecting brachial plexus (BP) abnormalities in breast cancer patients with plexopathy
but without palpable masses.
Design. MR imaging of the BP was performed on 26 breast cancer patients with brachial plexopathy without palpable regional masses,
using 0.5 T and 1.5 T imaging systems. Findings were correlated with the clinical diagnoses.
Patients. Twenty-six patients with brachial plexopathy and history of breast cancer were enrolled in the study. All patients presented
with plexopathy symptoms. Fourteen patients were positive and 12 patients were indeterminate for BP metastasis according to
clinical criteria.
Results and conclusion. MR imaging demonstrated masses involving the BP representing metastases in two patients. Nine patients had other regional
abnormalities with a normal brachial plexus. It is concluded that MR imaging is useful in the assessment and direction of
therapy of brachial plexopathy in breast cancer patients by detecting both metastases to the BP as well as other abnormalities,
unrelated to the BP, which may explain the patient’s symptoms.

In order to evaluate the clinical usefulness of an electronic real-time linear array scanner in breast diseases, ultrasonography was performed in 148 cases of histologically confirmed palpable breast masses. The real-time images were observed on a television monitor while moving the hand-held transducer probes over the masses. It took only a few minutes to examine and diagnose a palpable mass. Among 45 carcinomas, 39 lesions were correctly diagnosed, four lesions were not detected by ultrasound and two were misdiagnosed as fibroadenomas. On the other hand, ten benign lesions were falsely diagnosed as breast cancers: seven mastopathies (including four sclerosing adenosis), two fibroadenomas and one abscess. The sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing breast cancer were 0.87 and 0.90 respectively. Real-time sonography is a simple, time-saving and useful tool for examining palpable breast masses. However, it should be realised that some breast cancers are difficult to image and differentiate from benign lesions. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To present our experience in the therapeutic approach of the sentinel node biopsy (SNB) in patients with previous excision of the breast cancer, divided in non-palpable and palpable lesions, in comparison with time treatment and stagement of breast cancer. METHODS: In the period 2001-2006, 138 patients with prior diagnostic excisional biopsy (96 non-palpable and 42 palpable breast cancer) and 328 without previous surgery (32 non-palpable; 296 palpable cancer) were treated. The combined technique ((99m)Tc-colloidal rhenium and isosulfan blue dye) was the approach for sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) was completed only when the SLN was positive for metastasis or not located. RESULTS: Detection rate, if there was prior surgery, was 95% for non-palpable and 98% for palpable cancer, and 99% for one-time treatment group. Metastasis rate in the SLN was 15% in non-palpable cancer (14/91), significantly smaller than in palpable breast cancer (39% if prior surgery and 37% in one-time surgery). According to tumoral size, ALND metastasis rate was similar for T1 and T2 tumors (43-44%). In the follow-up of the groups with prior diagnostic biopsy or surgery of the breast cancer we have not found any false negative in the axilla. CONCLUSION: The detection of the SLN is also feasible in patients with previous surgery of breast cancer. Because SLN metastasis rates are significantly smaller in non-palpable lesions, the effort in screening programs for early detection of breast cancer and also in improving histopathological confirmation of malignancy with ultrasound or stereotactic guided core biopsies must continue. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Oncological treatment planning relies on the evaluation of treatment response, which is defined by the change in size of measurable lesions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to obtain a precise measurement of hepatic metastases in breast cancer patients with fatty-liver disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twelve consecutive patients with 25 liver metastases from breast cancer and fatty liver disease, as defined by US criteria, were enrolled in this prospective study. All patients underwent conventional US, CEUS and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), used as the gold standard for measuring the maximum diameter of lesions. Agreement between US, CEUS and MDCT measurements was analysed using Altman-Bland plots; 95% confidence limits were calculated for the difference among means. RESULTS: Mean diameter as measured by MDCT was 26.2 mm (range 11-83). US allowed measurement of 20/25 lesions. In 15 lesions, CEUS measurements were more accurate than those obtained by US. The difference among means was 1.1 mm with a 95% confidence interval (-9.2, 11.4) for US measurements and 0.6 mm with a 95% confidence interval (-2.0, 3.1) for CEUS. CONCLUSIONS: Our preliminary data show that CEUS can be used to obtain more accurate measurements than conventional US for the follow-up of patients with metastases in fatty liver. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of high frequency colour-Doppler ultrasound in the study of diffuse or local breast nodules in males, and compare these results with those of mammography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 105 men aged between 12 and 82 years (mean age 42.3 years) with a palpable breast mass with or without pain. All patients underwent clinical and ultrasound examination. Seventy-eight also underwent mammography, whereas 27 did not because of young age (under 25 years) (n=10), no clinical or sonographic suspicion of a malignant mass (n=16), and ulcerated neoplastic lesion (n=1). The final diagnosis derived from surgery in six patients and from three-year follow-up for 99 patients. RESULTS: Eighty-nine patients had gynecomastia (85%), nine had adipomastia (8%), one had fibrolipoma (1%), five had carcinoma (5%) (invasive ductal carcinoma in four and bifocal ductal carcinoma and lobular carcinoma in one patient) and one had liposarcoma (1%). The clinical examination detected a bilateral (n=66) or unilateral (n=39) breast mass. Ultrasonography provided the correct diagnosis of diffuse nodular pathology in all cases and orientated diagnosis towards malignancy (6 cases) or benignity (1 case) of the lesions. No additional information was obtained from mammography, as compared to high-frequency ultrasonography. The integration of colour-Doppler in the examination was of little use as it demonstrated extensive vascularisation of most (5 cases) of the malignant lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that ultrasound allows the detection and characterization of palpable breast masses as well as correct local staging of neoplasms by identifying the degree of infiltration of the surrounding tissues. 相似文献

Results of CT and US examinations in 24 patients with testicular tumors yielded similar sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes found at laparatomy. Therefore, the choice of either imaging modality may be influenced by other factors such as presence of abundant bowel gas, post-operative wounds, surgical clips in the abdomen, cachexia or obesity. 相似文献

The use of axillary xeroradiography for the detection of lymph node metastases from breast cancer was evaluated on 125 consecutive patients submitted to surgery and to axillary dissection. The clinical and xeroradiographic aspect of lymph nodes was related to their histological diagnosis. Axillary xeroradiography was useful in predicting the metastatic involvement of lymph nodes in a fair good percent of cases, but it gave sometimes unpredictable results due to the superimposition of superficial soft tissues and to the lack of reliable diagnostic criteria. For these reasons, axillary xeroradiography cannot be used as a primary procedure before surgery is performed, and the xeroradiographic diagnosis cannot be assumed as the unique prognostic factor in predicting the metastatic spread of the tumour. This technique may prove useful, however, for the study of the axilla in obese patients and for the evaluation of the size and of the relationships of an axillary mass. 相似文献
