Apresentação de resultados de um serviço de rastreamento mamográfico com ênfase na auditoria epidemiológica

Abstract

This study brings important epidemiological data for the audit of mammographic screening, rare among us. Data have been analyzed as compared to what is recommended by the literature, the detection rate and the percentage of minimal and in situ carcinomas found being comparable to the established values, but with the VPP value lower than the ideal.

Evaluation of breast cancer screening indicators in the female population using the National Health System, Brazil, 2018-2019: a descriptive study

“… 21 The Campinas study cited above found a rate of 0.3%, possibly explained by the fact that 42.2% of the women included in the study were under 50 years of age and that the study only included 93% of subsequent screening. 14 In general, despite the variability in BI-RADS ® 4 and 5 distribution, the detection rate estimated in our study was close to that reported in several programs and studies.…”

“…13 Comparison with previous exams, new incidences and maneuvers must be performed by the radiology service before the definitive BI-RADS ® result is issued. 14 As such, in accordance with what is recommended for this result, the SISCAN recommendation is to perform ultrasound.…”

“…Local studies indicate different biopsy rates: 2.2% in South Africa; 25 1% in the municipality of Monteiro, state of Paraíba; 26 and 1.7% in a reference center in Campinas, state of São Paulo, based on 35,041 mammograms. 14 Age and type of mammography machine (digital or not) should be considered, as they influence the biopsy rate. 18 There are also particularities in the studies and programs consulted.…”
