Background: Breast lumps are the commonest patient presentation in breast clinics. Initial diagnostic approaches, such as mammography and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), help prompting proper preoperative diagnosis planning management. Methods: This retrospective study included all patients who presented with underwent imaging (with Imaging Reporting Data System [BIRADS] scoring) FNAC I...

Introduction: The clinical utility of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is well established, but the analysis of data by radiologists can be timeconsuming. Novel visualisation software, called DIVA+QUADRANT, has been developed which quickly and clearly indicates those regions within a tumour which display the highest contrast agent enhancement (uptake) rate and the greatest degree of cont...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the quality assurance of mammography results at a reference institution for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer in southern Brazil, based on the BIRADS (Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System) 5th edition recommendations for auditing purposes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort and cross-sectional study with 4502 patients (9668 mammographies)) who und...

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast constitutes approximately 0.1% of all breast tumors. They can be located in the trachea, bronchus, cervix, lacrimal gland, and skin as well as the breast. Tumors in the breast have better prognoses compared to those in other locations. The diagnosis and treatment planning of this tumor is challenging due to its rare incidence. In this article, we presented...

Many studies have indicated that there is a strong correlation between breast tissue density/patterns and the risk of developing breast cancer. Therefore, modelling breast tissue appearance in mammograms is important for automated mammographic risk assessment. In this paper, we present a method for building models of breast tissue appearance based on local features in mammographic images. Mammo...

PURPOSE Assessing the role of breast MRI compared to galactography in patients with unilateral bloody or serous-bloody nipple discharge. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective study including 53 unilateral discharge patients who performed galactography and MRI. We evaluated the capability of both techniques in identifying pathology and distinguishing between nonmalignant and malignant lesions. L...

Breast cancer has the largest prevalence in world 2020, with 2,261,419 cases or 11.7%. It is also leading cause of death, accounting for 6.9% all deaths. Asia and Indonesia have greatest mortality rates. This an urgent issue that must be addressed. Ultrasonography (USG) advised assessing features breast nodules. nodules on ultrasound pictures are interpreted using Imaging, Reporting, Data Syste...

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS; intraductal carcinoma) is a noninvasive breast cancer originating from the cells that line the mammary ducts. Patients with DCIS can be asymptomatic at the time of presentation (radiographic findings on mammogram) or present with symptoms such as a palpable mass or nipple discharge [1]. We present an unusual case of DCIS in a 40 year old woman with recent palpabl...

Objective: To compare the two years follow-up versus biopsy in probably benign breastlesions (BIRADS3 category) with assessment of the malignancy potential in both conditions. Patients and Methods: This is a comparative descriptive record survey where records of all BIRADS 3 patients (number=575) who were admitted to the Women and Fetal Imaging (WAFI) center in Cairo-Egypt during the period fro...
