Contrast-enhanced spectral mammography improves diagnostic accuracy in the symptomatic setting.
AIM To assess the diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM), and gauge its "added value" in the symptomatic setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective multi-reader review of 100 consecutive CESM examinations was performed. Anonymised low-energy (LE) images were reviewed and given a score for malignancy. At least 3 weeks later, the entire examination (LE and reco...
متن کاملAn introduction to contrast enhanced spectral mammography
Contrast enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) is a new technology, gaining acceptance throughout Europe and the USA, but only recently introduced to the UK. GE Healthcare is currently the only UK vendor of CESM, using the brand name Senobright. In this article, we will explore the theory behind the technology and the practicalities of performing the test. A brief literature overview is provided...
متن کاملComparison between Breast MRI and Contrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography
BACKGROUND The main goal of this study was to compare contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) and breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with histopathological results and to compare the sensitivity, accuracy, and positive and negative predictive values for both imaging modalities. MATERIAL/METHODS After ethics approval, CESM and MRI examinations were performed in 102 patients who had ...
متن کاملContrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography: Comparison with Conventional Mammography and Histopathology in 152 Women
OBJECTIVE The goal of the study was to compare conventional mammography (MG) and contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) in preoperative women. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was approved by the local Ethics Committee and all participants provided informed consent. The study included 152 consecutive patients with 173 breast lesions diagnosed on MG or CESM. All MG examinations and consu...
متن کاملDual-energy contrast-enhanced mammography.
The degree of vascularization in breast lesions is related to their malignancy. For this reason, functional diagnostic imaging techniques have become important in recent years. Dual-energy contrast-enhanced mammography is a new, apparently promising technique in breast cancer that provides information about the degree of vascularization of the lesion in addition to the morphological information...
