Incidence and outcomes of incidental breast lesions detected on cross-sectional imaging examinations
The Breast Journal May 09, 2018
Falomo E, et al. - Through a retrospective review of the medical records, authors investigated the frequency and outcomes of incidental breast lesions detected on nonbreast specific cross-sectional imaging examinations. Kruskal-Wallis and Fisher's exact tests were used to determine factors related to an increased rate of malignancy. Researchers observed that positron emission tomography (PET) examinations had the highest rate of detection of incidental breast lesions and the highest rate of malignancy, therefore, PET examinations could be more specific for predicting the likelihood of malignancy of incidental breast lesions, compared to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
