Purpose: To prospectively compare clinical breast examination (CBE), mammography, ultrasonography (US), and contrast material–enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for screening women at genetic-familial high risk cancer report interim results, with pathologic findings as standard. Materials Methods: Institutional review board of each center approved the research; informed written consent was obtained. CBE, US, MR were performed yearly BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers, first-degree...
Abstract Here, we summarise the unresolved debate about p value and its dichotomisation. We present statement of American Statistical Association against misuse statistical significance as well proposals to abandon use reduce threshold from 0.05 0.005. highlight reasons for a conservative approach, clinical research needs dichotomic answers guide decision-making, in particular case diagnostic imaging interventional radiology. With reduced threshold, cost could increase while spontaneous be...
: To prospectively compare clinical breast examination, mammography, ultrasonography, and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a multicenter surveillance of high-risk women.: We enrolled asymptomatic women aged ≥ 25: BRCA mutation carriers; first-degree relatives carriers, with strong family history breast/ovarian cancer, including those previous personal cancer.: A total 18 centers 501 performed 1592 rounds (3.2 rounds/woman). Forty-nine screen-detected 3 interval cancers...
Abstract Breast density is an independent risk factor for the development of breast cancer and also decreases sensitivity mammography screening. Consequently, women with extremely dense breasts face increased late diagnosis cancer. These are, therefore, underserved current mammographic screening programs. The results recent studies reporting on contrast-enhanced MRI as a method in provide compelling evidence that this approach can enable important reduction mortality these cost-effective....
Description: The European Commission Initiative for Breast Cancer Screening and Diagnosis guidelines (European Guidelines) are coordinated by the Commission's Joint Research Centre. target audience includes women, health professionals, policymakers. Methods: An international guideline panel of 28 multidisciplinary members, including patients, developed questions corresponding recommendations that were informed systematic reviews evidence conducted between March 2016 December 2018. GRADE...
Benign thyroid nodules are a common clinical occurrence and usually do not require treatment unless symptomatic. During the last years, ultrasound-guided minimally invasive treatments (MIT) gained an increasing role in management of causing local symptoms. In February 2018, Italian MIT Thyroid Group was founded to create permanent cooperation between international physicians dedicated research assistance on for nodules. The group drafted this list statements based literature review consensus...
We report the results of a survey conducted among ESR members in November and December 2018, asking for expectations about artificial intelligence (AI) 5-10 years. Of 24,000 contacted, 675 (2.8%) completed survey, 454 males (67%), 555 (82%) working at academic/public hospitals. AI impact was mostly expected (≥ 30% responders) on breast, oncologic, thoracic, neuro imaging, mainly involving mammography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance. Responders foresee on: job opportunities (375/675,...
We summarise here the information to be provided women and referring physicians about percutaneous breast biopsy lesion localisation under imaging guidance. After explaining why a preoperative diagnosis with is preferred surgical biopsy, we illustrate criteria used by radiologists for choosing most appropriate combination of device type sampling technique Then, describe commonly devices, from fine-needle tissue larger needles, namely core needle vacuum-assisted how mammography, digital...
Abstract Purpose To propose a new quality scoring tool, METhodological RadiomICs Score (METRICS), to assess and improve research of radiomics studies. Methods We conducted an online modified Delphi study with group international experts. It was performed in three consecutive stages: Stage#1, item preparation; Stage#2, panel discussion among EuSoMII Auditing Group members identify the items be voted; Stage#3, four rounds exercise by panelists determine eligible for METRICS their weights. The...
Purpose: To compare short- and long-term outcomes of patients with rotator cuff calcific tendonitis who did not undergo ultrasonographically (US)-guided percutaneous treatment. Materials Methods: Institutional review board approval informed patient consent were obtained. Of referred for US-guided treatment tendonitis, 219 (86 men, 133 women; mean age, 40.3 years ± 10.9 [standard deviation]) treated; 68 (31 37 40.2 11.3) refused served as control subjects. After local anesthesia was induced,...
EUSOBI and 30 national breast radiology bodies support mammography for population-based screening, demonstrated to reduce cancer (BC) mortality treatment impact. According the International Agency Research on Cancer, reduction in is 40 % women aged 50–69 years taking up invitation while probability of false-positive needle biopsy <1 per round overdiagnosis only 1–10 a 20-year screening. Mortality was also observed age groups 40–49 70–74 years, although with “limited evidence”. Thus, we...
This article summarises the information that should be provided to women and referring physicians about breast ultrasound (US). After explaining physical principles, technical procedure safety of US, is given its ability make a correct diagnosis, depending on setting in which it applied. The following definite indications for US female subjects are proposed: palpable lump; axillary adenopathy; first diagnostic approach clinical abnormalities under 40 pregnant or lactating women; suspicious...
