Objectives We aimed to compare the diagnostic performances of digital mammography (DM), breast tomosynthesis (DBT), ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), specific gamma (BSGI) and/or positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for detection invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). Methods Index ILCs and multifocal/multicentric (multiple) were analyzed using various modalities. The final surgical pathology was regarded as reference standard. rate index cancers performance multiple per evaluated. Results Seventy-eight in 76 women enrolled. Twenty-six breasts had ILCs. DM (n=72), DBT (n=15), US (n=77), MRI (n=76), BSGI (n=50), /or PET/CT (n=74) performed. For cancer, 100% DBT, US, MRI. ILCs, sensitivity (P<0.001). accuracy 73.3% 73.0% (P=0.460). Conclusion most accurate modality both also valuable whereas showed relatively low performances. have promising roles diagnosis
