Contrast-enhanced Mammography Collection
Objective Low-energy (LE) images of contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) have been shown to be noninferior to digital mammography. However, our experience is that LE images are superior to 2D mammography. Our purpose was to compare cancer appearance on LE to 2D images. Methods In this IRB-approved ...
Objective To compare the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) with MRI and mammography (MG) based on histopathological results. Methods In this IRB-approved study, written informed consent was obtained from all patients. Images from 40 patients (62 lesions) with suspicious ...
Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is a promising new imaging modality that uses a dual-energy acquisition to provide both morphologic and vascular assessment of breast lesions. Although no official BI-RADS lexicon exists, interpretation entails using the mammographic BI-RADS lexicon in ...
Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is gaining rapid traction following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for diagnostic indications. Contrast-enhanced mammography is an alternative form of mammography that uses a dual-energy technique for image acquisition after the intravenous ...
In this paper we provide an overview of contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and a review of the published literature in order to provide a picture of the current state of the evidence on the performance of CEM. Clinical research was fairly sparse following the demonstration of the technique in ...
A 69-year-old female presenting for screening mammography was found to have a 10 mm irregularly shaped mass with spiculated margins in the left breast at 2 o’clock ( Figure 1 ). The patient underwent a contrast-enhanced mammogram (CEM), which showed avid enhancement of the suspicious mass in the ...
Objective Using terms adapted from the BI-RADS Mammography and MRI lexicons, we trained radiologists to interpret contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and assessed reliability of their description and assessment. Methods A 60-minute presentation on CEM and terminology was reviewed independently by ...
Objective To assess quantitative enhancement of benign, high-risk, and malignant lesions and differences in molecular subtype and grade of malignant lesions on contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM). Methods This IRB-approved retrospective study included women who underwent CEM for diagnostic work-up ...
