RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Breast lesions classified as BI-RADS-US 3 are probably benign and observation was recommended, while a considerable number of BI-RADS-US 4 lesions were benign, resulting in excessive biopsies. We focus exclusively on BI-RADS-US 3 and 4 lesions and hypothesize that improved diagnostic performance can be achieved by integrating real-time elastography (strain ratio) into the BI-RADS-US classification system. METHOD: From April 2010 to September 2015, 1071 lesions were included in the final analysis. After the conventional ultrasound examination, the BI-RADS-US (2013) classification was used to evaluate the lesions. Then the strain ratios were calculated, and the final diagnosis was made on the basis of histological results. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, PPV and NPV were calculated and the AUCs were compared. Additionally, an analysis of the diagnostic performance expressed by the pretest and posttest probability of disease (POD) was performed in BI-RADS-US 3 and 4A lesions. RESULTS: With the cutoff point of 2.98, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the strain ratio method were 86.9 %, 86.6 % and 82.6 %, respectively. In BI-RADS-US 3 lesions, a suspicious strain ratio significantly modified the POD from 1.3 % to a posttest POD of 29.8 %. In BI-RADS-US 4A lesions, a suspicious strain ratio significantly modified the POD from 8.5 % to a posttest POD of 48.7 %. CONCLUSION: Ultrasonographic elastography (strain ratio) yields additional diagnostic information in the evaluation of BI-RADS-US 3 and 4 breast lesions. The strain ratios should be integrated into the BI-RADS-US classification system and into daily practice.

RESUMO

On the basis of results of our previous studies and the findings of other scholars, the most common histologic type of false-positive diagnosis with strain elastography (SE) was papilloma. The objectives of our study were to evaluate whether SE could contribute to conventional ultrasound differentiation between benign and malignant papillary lesions and between papillary lesions and other common benign breast lesions. Data on 89 papillary lesions at our hospital, including 74 benign and 15 malignant papillary lesions, were included in our study. In addition, 198 non-papillary benign tumors were selected as the control group, including 126 fibroadenomas and 72 cases of fibrocystic mastopathy. All patients gave written informed consent. All patients with breast lesions underwent conventional ultrasound and SE examination. Breast Imaging Recording and Data System (BI-RADS) category and SE score were compared with respect to sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in differentiating between benign and malignant papillary lesions. We then explored the possibility of using BI-RADS combined with SE to differentiate papillary lesions from non-papillary benign tumors. For differentiating between benign and malignant papillary lesions, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of BI-RADS was 0.568, whereas the AUC values of SE score, strain ratio and BI-RADS combined with SE were 0.517, 0.584 and 0.509, respectively (p > 0.05). For differentiating between papillary lesions and non-papillary benign lesions, the AUC of BI-RADS combined with SE was 0.835, which was higher than the values for BI-RADS (0.775) and SE (SE score: 0.648, strain ratio: 0.661) (p < 0.001). The specificity and accuracy of BI-RADS combined with SE were significantly higher than those for BI-RADS alone without a decrease in sensitivity (p < 0.05). SE could not improve the diagnostic efficiency of BI-RADS in differentiating between benign and malignant papillary lesions. However, BI-RADS combined with SE could improve the specificity of BI-RADS without decrease in sensitivity for differentiating breast papillary lesions from non-papillary benign lesions.
