The importance of breast elastography added to the BI-RADS® (5th edition) lexicon classification

Abstract: The imporTance of breasT elasTography added To The bi-rads® ( Conflicts of interest: noneObjective: the aim of this study was to investigate the addition of elastography to the BI-RADS ® lexicon for the classification of breast lesions. Methods: a total of 955 consecutive patients who were subjected to breast percutaneous biopsy from January 2010 to December 2012 were retrospectively assessed. Overall, 26 patients who did not present with masses on conventional ultrasound were excluded. The patients were clas… Show more

“…In a 955-patient study of Fleury et al [31] the addition of elastography to BI-RADS was proved to significantly increase diagnostic accuracy (76.64% to 91.39%) and specificity (from 72.07% to 80.65%) of US in the assessment of breast lesions. As shown in our study, elastograms obtained aided the senologist in differentiating 3-4A, 4A-4B, 4B-4C, or 4C-5 BI-RADS categories, but mostly in <13 mm lesions.…”

“…A detecção de anormalidades em imagens médicas é um procedimento propenso a erros, mesmo para radiologistas qualificados e experientes, visto que o resultado patológico em até 75% das pacientes encaminhadas para biópsia é benigno (ATABEY et al, 2014;KUMM;SZABUNIO, 2010 Alguns estudos vêm sendo desenvolvidos no contexto comparativo de diferenciação de lesões benignas e malignas por parte do ultrassom modo-B e elastografia da mama (FLEURY, 2015;LEE et al, 2011;LEONG et al, 2010;LI et al, 2017;MOUKHTAR;ELMAATI, 2014;YOUK et al, 2014;ZHI et al, 2007). Esses estudos têm por objetivo avaliar a sensibilidade e especificidade da elastografia como técnica de triagem adjunta baseada na inspeção visual do médico confrontada com a biópsia.…”

“…Essa classificação baseou-se na classificação visual proposta por Fleury (2015;), e foi proposta por Choi et al, (2015) e Lo et al, (2013) para elastogramas relativos a outros órgãos do corpo. As lesões classificadas como macia e intermediária, assim, foram consideradas como negativas (casos benignos) e as rígidas, como positivas (casos malignos).…”
