ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To investigate the factors affecting detectability of invasive breast cancers on BSGI. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
We evaluated BSGI, mammography and pathologic reports of 89 patients with invasive breast cancers.RESULTS:
87.6% were visible on BSGI. Cancer in old or postmenopausal women were more visible on BSGI (pâ¯=â¯0.003, 0.046). Cancersâ¯≥â¯1.0â¯cm in size were significantly more visible on BSGI than those <1â¯cm in size (pâ¯=â¯0.002). Cancers in fatty breasts were more visible than those in dense breasts (pâ¯=â¯0.042).CONCLUSION:
Invasive cancers in older, postmenopausal patients, cancers with size ≥1.0â¯cm, and those with fatty breast are better visualized by BSGI, than those in younger, premenopausal patients, with size <1.0â¯cm and dense breast.Palavras-chave
