Computerized Diagnosis of Breast Fine-Needle Aspirates
The goal of this work is to determine the accuracy of computer-based image analysis in diagnosing breast fine-needle aspirates (FNA). On 192 FNAs, the computerbased diagnostic accuracy was 97.9%. This is consistent with the 97.5% accuracy projected by machine learning methods during the initial training in 1994 with 569 FNAs. One of the attributes of this system is the rendering of a value that...
متن کاملEnzyme Immunoassay of Estrogen Receptors in Fine Needle Aspirates of Breast Tumors1
Enzyme immunoassay of estrogen receptors (ER-EIA) was compared to radioligand assay (ER-RLA) in fine needle aspirates of breast tumors. Fine needle aspiration is a relatively atraumatic means of harvesting malignant cells from breast tumors. Fine needle aspiration provides a homogeneous suspension (about 90% malignant cells) with a sufficient amount of cellular material (10 to 50 ¿igDNA per sa...

متن کاملAtypia in fine needle aspirates of breast lesions.
BACKGROUND The atypical category is controversial in fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the breast; most are benign, but a significant number are malignant. To date, no morphological criterion has been found to be consistent in predicting malignancy. AIMS To evaluate specific cytological parameters and assess their usefulness in predicting histological outcome in a cohort of atypical b...
متن کاملPresurgical determination of estrogen receptor status using immunocytochemically stained fine needle aspirate smears in patients with breast cancer.
We have developed an immunocytochemical staining procedure (ERICA) using a monoclonal antibody to the estrogen receptor (ER) to determine ER status from samples obtained by fine needle aspiration of primary and recurrent breast cancer tissue (cyto-ERICA). ER status was assessable on 214 of 246 smeared aspirates from breast cancer patients. In 143 (66.8%) assessable smears positive nuclear stain...
