To determine the appearance of breast lesions at quantitative ultrasonographic (US) elastography by using supersonic shear imaging (SSI) and to assess correlation between values lesion stiffness pathologic results, which were used as reference standard.This study was approved French National Committee for Protection Patients Participating in Biomedical Research Programs. All patients provided written informed consent. Conventional US SSI performed 46 women (mean age, 57.6 years; age range,...
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....
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...
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...
While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered a helpful diagnostic tool in breast imaging, discussions are ongoing about appropriate protocols and indications. The European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) launched survey to evaluate the utilisation MRI clinical practice. An online reviewed by EUSOBI board committees was distributed amongst members. questions encompassed: training experience; annual MRI-guided-intervention workload; examination protocols; indications; reporting...
Abstract Unilateral axillary lymphadenopathy is a frequent mild side effect of COVID-19 vaccination. European Society Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) proposes ten recommendations to standardise its management and reduce unnecessary additional imaging invasive procedures: (1) in patients with previous history breast cancer, vaccination should be performed the contralateral arm or thigh; (2) collect data for all referred services, including undergoing cancer staging follow-up examinations; (3) perform...
Breast cancer response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is typically evaluated through the assessment of tumor size reduction after a few cycles NAC. In case treatment ineffectiveness, this results in patient suffering potentially severe secondary effects without achieving any actual benefit.To identify patients pathologic complete (pCR) NAC by spatio-temporal radiomic analysis dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI images acquired before treatment.Single-center, retrospective.A total 251...
<b>Purpose</b> Firstly to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic performance of three-dimensional (3 D) shear wave elastography (SWE) volume measurements in patients with breast lesions compared dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) lesion volumes 3D-US B-mode volumes. Secondly assess treatment monitoring 3D-SWE under neoadjuvant chemotherapy for cancer by comparing it volume. <b>Materials Methods</b> This prospective study was approved institutional review board....

The performance...
Introduction: Breast lesions of uncertain malignant potential (B3) include atypical ductal and lobular hyperplasias, carcinoma in situ, flat epithelial atypia, papillary lesions, radial scars fibroepithelial as well other rare miscellaneous lesions. They are challenging to categorise histologically, requiring specialist training multidisciplinary input. may coexist with situ or invasive breast cancer (BC) increase the risk subsequent BC development. Management should focus on adequate...

We present this overview current gold standard given by MR elastography, which uses a full three-dimensional approach to solve locally for unknown complex shear modulus at one frequency. Clinical results benign malignant breast lesions are shown. Less rigorous terms data completeness, but significantly...
