Uma proposta de classificação ecográfica mamária

Abstract: 515Rev Bras Ginecol Obstet. 2005; 27(9): 515-23 RESUMO Objetivos: as melhorias tecnológicas na qualidade da imagem têm aumentado a importância da ultra-sonografia no estudo das patologias mamárias. A necessidade de padronização para caracterizar, descrever e emitir laudos na análise das imagens motivaram o desenvolvimento de um sistema de classificação de laudos ecográficos mamários. Métodos: o sistema de classificação proposto agrupou as imagens ecográficas mamárias em cinco classes: I -normal, II -benigna, I… Show more

“…Ultrasonography has demonstrated to play a relevant role as an adjuvant to mammography in the diagnosis of breast cancer, and the BI-RADS lexicon has aided in the consolidation of such a role (3)(4)(5) . The main objective of the BI-RADS lexicon for US is to standardize the assessment and reporting of breast lesions identified on US images, which tends to facilitate the sonographic finding follow-up through the comparison with subsequent reports.…”

“…Breast ultrasonography (US) plays a relevant role as a complement to mammography and clinical examination in the evaluation of breast diseases. Besides being capable to detect some initially suspicious lesions that might be missed at mammography, breast US can be useful in the differentiation between solid and cystic nodules as well as between benign and malignant nodules (3)(4)(5) . Some lesion characteristics, such as orientation and echogenicity, are exclusively observed at US, and others, such as contour and shape, are critical in the image interpretation, the first one presenting higher sensitivity, and the second one, high specificity (6)(7)(8)(9) .…”

“…Surge, portanto, em trabalho mais recente o questionamento se agulhas menos calibrosas como a de 16 e 18 G poderiam melhorar a eficácia diagnóstica da core biopsy, em especial, nas lesões menores que 1cm 2 ou se a oferta de fragmentos menores poderia prejudicar a leitura histopatológica 8 . O presente estudo tem por objetivo desenvolver um padrão de avaliação diagnóstica pela core biopsy com agulha de 16G em lesões mamárias suspeitas, utilizando critérios ecográficos padronizados para a caracterização e descrição das imagens ultrassonográficas e relacionando os resultados ao tamanho das lesões investigadas e avaliando o número ideal de fragmentos a serem colhidos 9 . Foi feita uma avaliação sequencial por imagem diagnóstica e procedimento invasivo das lesões mamárias da seguinte forma:…”
