Key Words Breast imaging reporting and data system; Contrast-enhanced ultrasound; Biopsy; False positive biopsy
Core Tip Many published studies show that overdiag-nosis is now a problem faced if the breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) category is used in clinical practice. Many patients underwent unnecessary biopsies even if the final pathological results were benign lesions. It seems that BI-RADS is not good enough and one of the reasons may be that there is no microvascular information. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can give us this informa-tion. We tried to determine whether CEUS can improve the precision of the BI-RADS categorization. Our results showed that in all BI-RADS 4 lesions which were suggested as needing a biopsy, CEUS-based BI-RADS can decrease false positive biopsies and increase cancer-to-biopsy yield and that only 4.68% invasive cancers were misdiagnosed.
