The assessment categories were initially developed for mammography and later adapted for use with MRI and ultrasound findings. The summary of each category, given below, is nearly identical for all three modalities. Category 6 was added in the 4th edition of the BI-RADS. BI-RADS assessment categories are: [2] 0: Incomplete; 1: Negative; 2: Benign
After describing the findings, the radiologist provides a final assessment ranging from 0 to 6: BI-RADS 0 indicates an incomplete assessment which needs additional imaging. BI-RADS 1 & 2 indicate a negative and benign screen mammogram respectively. BI-RADS 3 indicates probably benign. [53] BI-RADS 4 indicates suspicious for malignancy.
The TI-RADS (Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data Systems) are sonographic classification systems which describe the suspicious findings of thyroid nodules. [12] It was first proposed by Horvath et al., [13] based on the BI-RADS (Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System) concept. Several systems were subsequently proposed and adopted by ...
A suspicious area on mammography or ultrasound. [9] This may include: Microcalcifications on MRI. [10] BI-RADS score of 4 or 5 on mammography, ultrasound, or MRI. [11] A suspicious hard palpable lump [9] Skin changes like crusting, scaling, or dimpling of the breast, which may signal an underlying breast cancer [9] Abnormal nipple discharge [7] [9]
The incidence of thyroid cancer in the United States increased by 313% from a 1974-1977 incidence of 4.6 cases per 100,000 people to 14.4 cases per 100,000 people in 2010-13. [72] This increase is thought to be due to more widespread use of head and neck imaging (which may incidentally detect thyroid masses) as well as increased use of fine ...
Joseph Emerson, a former Alaska Airlines pilot, calls it the biggest mistake of his life. Emerson was inside an Alaska Airlines cockpit last October when he raised his arms and pulled two large ...
LCIS is identified in 0.5% to 1.5% of benign breast biopsies. These biopsies are often done in response to suspicious mammographic findings, as discussed in the Diagnosis section of this article. LCIS is identified in 1.8% to 2.5% of all breast biopsies (including those that show histologic evidence of other lobular or ductal neoplasia. [13]
