In this retrospective study we share our single-center experience using a magnetic seed for the preoperative localization of non-palpable breast lesions. Patients who underwent with Magseed® (Endomagnetics, Cambridge, UK) placement between 2020 and 2022 were enrolled. Indications to Magseed have been established during multidisciplinary meetings prior surgery all patients breast-conserving (BCS). 45 included. Magnetic seeds introduced under ultrasound guidance in 40 (88.9%) stereotactic 5...
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the impact of male breast cancer and its treatment on patient’s sexual function, including changes in desire, performance, satisfaction. investigate body image experienced by patients their perception accessing healthcare hospital facilities. Methods We administered three online questionnaires using Google Forms (Google LLC) to treated at our Institution from 2015 2023. The surveys were provided Italian distributed March 1st April 1st, 2024. A panel one...
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess the inter-reader agreement breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) lexicon. Materials methods In IRB-approved, single-center, retrospective study, three radiologists, each with different levels experience, reviewed 462 lesions in 421 routine clinical CEM according fifth edition BI-RADS lexicon for first version CEM. Readers were blinded patient outcomes evaluated lesion features on...
Objectives Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is an accurate competitor for contrast-enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI), but the examination limited by lack of 3D information. Digital tomosynthesis (DBT) allows better lesion detection and characterization compared with mammography. The availability quasi-3D contrast could further improve performance CEM. aim our analysis was to compare diagnostic a digital prototype (CE-DBTp) CEM CE-MRI. Materials Methods This prospective...
Abstract Purpose Lesion conspicuity, the relative enhancement of a lesion compared to surrounding tissue, is new descriptor in ACR BI-RADS 2022 CEM supplement. We conspicuity contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and MRI (CE-MRI) patients with suspicious breast lesions. Materials methods IRB-approved retrospective study; three blinded readers rated 462 indeterminate or lesions 388 (54.2 ± 11 years; range 30–90) who underwent CE-MRI from 2018 2022. Each lesion’s was scored 1 5, 5 indicating...
Background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) refers to the physiological of breast fibroglandular tissue. This study aimed determine agreement BPE evaluation between contrast enhanced mammography (CEM) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) investigate potential confounders.
Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) with negative resection margins decreases the locoregional recurrence rate. Breast cancer size is one of main determinants Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) staging. Our study aimed to investigate accuracy supine 3D automated breast ultrasound (3D ABUS) compared prone ABUS in evaluation tumor patient candidates for BCS. In this prospective two-center (Groups 1 and 2), we enrolled patients percutaneous biopsy-proven early-stage cancer, period between June 2019 May...
