Objective To evaluate the X-ray characterstics of benign and malignant neoplasms on mammography in order to improve their differeatial diagnostic level.Methods X-ray image changes of 67 malignant breast neoplasms were described by the mammography and in comparision with those of 31 benign masses .Results The accordance percentages between the X-ray and histological examinations for the malignant and benigin neoplasms were shown to be 89.6% and 84.0% respectively. Occurrence of masses with an enhanced density , irregular shape, calcification granules in clusters were found to be indication of a malignent lesion.Conclusion The mamography can provide effective imaging data for differential diagnosis betweren the benign and malignant breast neoplasms.

Objective To evaluate X-ray stereotactic localized biopsy with resident metal wire in the diagnosis of breast minutelesions. Methods 28 cases of breast minute lesions were analyzed retrospectively,all cases were non-palpable clinically,but were positive by mammography.Needle biopsies were executed under X-ray stereotactic localization,and a thin metal wire was sited in lesion to instruct resection. Results All of 28 cases with minute lesion were successfully localized and completely resected,localization satisfaction rate was 93% percent.Pathological diagnosis showed benign lesion in 19 cases,and malignant lesion in 9 cases.Among the 9 malignant cases,there were 5 cases of invasive duct carcinoma,1 case of duct carcinoma with early invasion,2 cases of duct carcinoma,and 1 case of medullary carcinoma. Conclusion X-ray stereotactic localized biopsy with resident metal wire can provide accurate localization and precise diagnosis,especially in the diagnosis of occult breast cancer.It is an efficient method in the diagnosis of early breast carcinoma.
