Abstract:
Objective:To assess the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) in suspected breast lesions.
Methods:A total of 97 patients with suspected breast cancer identified by clinical examination or screening underwent two-views CESM examination on the basis of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) combined with full-field digital mammography (FFDM), and they were finally confirmed by biopsy or pathology. Three senior radiologists analyzed images, including lesion visibility, lesion characteristics, enhancement type, degree of enhancement, BIRDS classification, etc. Finally, based on the pathology, we compared the CESM+DBT+FFDM and DBT+FFDM two models according to sensitivity, specificity and ROC for diagnostic performance.
Results:There were a total of 120 lesions. Eighty-nine lesions were malignant, 31 benign; CESM was not enhanced in 2 cases, mild enhancement was performed in 22 cases, moderately intensive in 15 cases, highly intensive in 81 cases, and 2 cases were not enhanced; mass-enhanced in 96 cases, including ring-enhanced in 12 cases, 22 cases of non-mass type. The sensitivities of the combination of CESM and not combination of CESM were 91.0% and 80.9%, respectively, and the specificities were 93.5% and 87.1%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of combination of CESM was higher than the without combination of CESM (0.923 and 0.900, P<0.05), The difference was statistically significant.
Conclusion:For suspicious lesions, CESM examination can improve the diagnosis accuracy of breast cancer.
