Abstract Objectives Preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can inform surgical planning but might cause overtreatment by increasing the mastectomy rate. The Multicenter International Prospective Analysis (MIPA) study investigated this controversial issue. Methods This observational enrolled women aged 18–80 years with biopsy-proven cancer, who underwent MRI in addition to conventional (mammography and/or ultrasonography) or alone before surgery as routine practice at 27...

Abstract Objectives To investigate the influence of preoperative breast MRI on mastectomy and reoperation rates in patients with pure ductal carcinoma situ (DCIS). Methods The MIPA observational study database (7245 patients) was searched for aged 18–80 years unilateral DCIS diagnosed at core needle or vacuum-assisted biopsy (CNB/VAB) planned primary surgery. Patients who underwent (MRI group) were matched (1:1) to those did not receive (noMRI according 8 confounding covariates that drive...

To evaluate the presence of contrast enhancement at site calcifications on contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and histopathologic results vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB), to examine association with lesion size immunohistochemical characteristics, in order assess disease aggressiveness malignant lesions.A total 34 patients 36 clusters suspicious (BI-RADS 4) were investigated CEM before scheduled VAB. We evaluated or absence enhancement, histologic diagnosis, and, case lesions, their expression...

Although mammography screening significantly reduces breast cancer mortality, women could present different morphological characteristics that do not allow the correct vision of their breasts and detection cancer, resulting in a delay diagnosis an increase risk mortality. The study aims at analyzing potential areas improvement current programs then hypothesizing alternative technologies to use within diagnostic phase, from economic point view. A Budget Impact Analysis approach was...

Purpose: To investigate the agreement between automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and hand-held (HHUS) in surveillance of women with a history cancer terms recurrences or new ipsilateral contralateral cancer. Methods: The institutional review board approved this retrospective study informed consent was waived. From April to June 2016, dense breasts undergoing annual mammography HHUS after breast-conserving surgery were offered supplemental ABUS (Invenia). performed by radiologist trained...
