Screening of breast lesions: a comparative study between mammography, B-mode ultrasonography, sonoelastography and histological results

Abstract: Objective: To compare the capacity of mammography, sonoelastography, B-mode ultrasonography and histological analysis to differentiate benign from malignant breast lesions. Materials and Methods: A total of 12 histopathologically confirmed breast lesions were documented. The lesions were assessed by means of mammography, B-mode ultrasonography and sonoelastography, and histopathological analysis was utilized as a gold standard. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated. A receiver operating characteristic (R… Show more

“…Solid malignant lesions were harder and stiffer than solid benign lesions as depicted in the articles earlier [6, 18-21]. The extra information derived from the assessment of elasticity is quite useful for atypical benign or malignant lesions (BI-RADS 3 or 4a) as outlined by the previous studies [12, 22-23].…”

“…Hyperechogenic breast nodules are uncommon and, despite the high predictive value for benignity, all the sonographic characteristics should be taken into consideration ( 16 ) . A full appreciation of the most suspicious imaging findings such as non-circumscribed margins and posterior acoustic shadowing, together with appropriate mammographic correlation and clinical context, contribute to determine the most appropriate clinical/surgical approach ( 17 ) .…”

“…Tabela 5.18 -Resultado da classificação de lesões obtido pela associação do ultrassom modo- Tabela 5.26 -Resultado do desempenho do radiologista na diferenciação de lesões com tamanho inferior a 10 mm baseado no estudo proposto por Lee et al (2011) O câncer de mama é a neoplasia mais comum na população feminina, compreendendo cerca de 16% de tumores na mulher (PARDAL et al, 2013). Trata-se do crescimento desordenado de células da mama, originando um tumor com capacidade de metástase, apresentando-se como um nódulo palpável, de consistência endurecida, quase sempre indolor e fixo (COSTA, 2009 (KEMP et al, 2001;RICCI et al, 2014).…”

“…A elastografia apresenta como principais vantagens não trabalhar com radiação ionizante, fornecer informação mais específica da possível lesão, não representar acréscimo de tempo significativo ao estudo, ser segura e não invasiva (CARNEIRO, 2010;PARDAL et al, 2013). Pode ser utilizada como um método adicional para sugerir a probabilidade de malignidade, baseada na medida de rigidez da lesão (KUMM; SZABUNIO, 2010).…”
