Overview

Mammography is considered as the first and mainstay for evaluation of palpable masses in women over 40 years. Diagnostic mammogram contains particular views by focal compression of specific part of breast tissue.There is standard method for reporting mammographic findings which is called breast imaging reporting and database system (BI-RADS) which is classified into 7 categories.

Other Imaging Findings

Mammography

Mammography is considered as the first and mainstay for evaluation of palpable masses in women over 40 years.[1] [2]

Diagnostic mammogram contains particular views by focal compression of specific part of breast tissue.[3]

Indication of diagnostic mammography:

  • Breast symptoms such as palpable masses
  • Positive history of breast cancer in last 5 years
  • Required additional imaging due to abnormal screening mammogram including (calcification, masses, architectural distortion, asymmetries)

There is standard method for reporting mammographic findings which is called breast imaging reporting and database system (BI-RADS).

BI-RADS[3]
Category Assessment Follow-up
0 Required additional imaging evaluation Additional imaging findings are required to classify in specific category
1 Negetive Annual screening mammograms (age>40 years)
2 Benign Annual screening mammograms (age>40 years)
3 Probably benign Every 6 months follow-up (risk of malignancy<2%)
4 Suspicious abnormality Biopsy should be considered (2%-95% risk of malignancy)
5 High suggestive of malignancy Biopsy is required (>95% chance of malignancy)
6 Known cancer Biopsy is required to prove malignancy

Normal mammographic features regarding to palpable mass do not rule out malignancy.Therefore; further ultrasound is needed to be performed.[4] Only 57% of women with palpable breast lumps and normal mammographic features received further evaluation.[5] Mammographic finding in favor of calcified fibroadenoma, oil cyst, galactocele, hamartoma, lipoma, lymph node and fatty tissue in specific breast areas do not need any further evaluation. Otherwise, probably benign and suspicious features are required further evaluation via ultrasound.[6]
