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 ...
Similar to the triple test score, a lower scoring on BI-RADS (i.e. 1 or 2) is indicative of a benign screening while a high scoring (i.e. 5 or 6) is indicative of malignancy. [2] Unlike the triple test score which scores three different exams, BI-RADS focuses on evaluating findings from one exam: mammograms.
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]
A variant from this approach, defined on the basis of physical exam findings, is that inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), a form of ductal carcinoma or malignant cancer in the ducts, is distinguished from other carcinomas by the inflamed appearance of the affected breast, which correlates with increased cancer aggressivity. [2]
Fibroadenoma of the breast is a benign tumor composed of a biplastic proliferation of both stromal and epithelial components. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] This biplasia can be arranged in two growth patterns: pericanalicular (stromal proliferation around epithelial structures) and intracanalicular (stromal proliferation compressing the epithelial structures ...
This category reflects the organization of International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision. Generally, diseases outlined within the ICD-10 codes D10-D36 within Chapter II: Neoplasms should be included in this category.
