Abstract

The article discusses studies on diagnostic imaging for breast cancer. A study stressed that excision of lobular neoplasia (LN) is unnecessary if careful radiographic-pathologic correlation is performed and strict histologic criteria are adhered when making the diagnosis. A research highlighted the outcomes among breast imaging-reporting and data system (BI-RADS)-5 lesion patients who were treated in a community practice in the U.S. from 1998 to 2002. Another study evaluated the efficiency of core biopsy for BI-RADS-5 breast lesions.
