Objective To retrospectively study the value of ultrasonography in diagnosing breast lymphoma and compare with mammography and MRI. Methods Imaging characteristics of 26 patients who were pathologically comfirmed as breast lymphoma were reviewed, including ultrasonography,mammography and MRI, and compare the diagnostic accuracy among the three. Results Twenty-four patients underwent ultrasonography and 32 lesions were found, with longest diameters averaged 30 mm.Tumors were mostly hypoechoic or very hypoechoic (81.3％), some were lobular (25.0％) or oval (21.9 ％ ) in shape, the margins were most frequently circumcribed (62. 5 ％ ), and a few tumors showed an echogenic boundary (18.8 ％ ). Color Doppler imaging showed hypervascularity in most tumors (59.4 ％ ).Ninteen patients undewent mammography, 15 solitary lesions were identified in 12 patients, asymmetric density in five,punctate calcification in one,and no abnormality in one. Eleven lesions were identified in MRI of 10 patients, 10 lesions showed hypointensity on T1-weighted images and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images, and heterogeneous enhancement after contrast. The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography,mammography and MRI was 83％, 52％ and 100％, respectively. Conclusions The sonograms of breast lymphoma have some distinct features, the combination of ultrasonography and MRI might benefit the diagnosis of breast lymphoma.

Corresponding author:PAN Cong-qing,E-mail:cq.pan@163.com Objective The prevalence of diabetic foot was 2.3% for out-patients and 8.6% (208/2428) for in-patients with amputation rate of 17.3% in our hospital from May 1997 to Dec 2000, more often seen on right than left extremity and in patients over 50 years old than in the younger.

Objective To study ultrasound features of breast cancer before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy,and its correlation with histopathology. Methods One hundred and nine patients with breast cancer underwent paclitaxel plus carboplatin neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the change of the primary lesions and axillary lymph nodes were studied by ultrasound,and compared with histopathology. Results Seventeen patients achieved complete remission under ultrasound, the rest measurable lesions became significantly shortened in maximum diameter [ ( 22.46 ± 11.50) mm vs (34. 71 ± 13.67) mm, P ＜ 0. 001 ], and showed decrease both in longitudinal-transverse ratio (0. 80 ± 0. 23 vs 0. 86 ± 0. 22, P ＞0. 05) and grades of blood flow (0. 51 ± 0.80 vs 1.23± 1.05, P ＜0. 001 ). 44. 83% (44/92) of metastatic axillary lymph nodes disapeared after treatment. Comparing with histopathology, the sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound assessing complete remission were 57. 89 % ( 11 / 19) and 93.33 % (84/90), respectively. The moderate concord between ultrasound with histopathology might be attributed to the pathologic change of breast tissue and stroma after treatment, nevertheless grades of blood flow might be more meaningful. Conclusions Ultrasound assessment of neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic response might be of reference value,and studying corresponding ultrasonic manifestation of different kinds of pathological changes would help with better evaluation.
