Abstract:
:The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic performance of breast imaging in the diagnosis of breast cancer in a non-screening population. In a consecutive set of patients referred for mammography in one year, the results of palpation and radiological breast imaging were scored on a 5-point grading scale and linked to pathology as gold standard after a follow up period of one year. The diagnostic performance was studied by logistic regression analysis and ROC-curves. There were 1,944 breast examinations in 1,890 patients and 3,816 breasts. Pathology results reported 118 malignancies in 115 women. With a cut-off point between benign and uncertain benign a sensitivity of 89% and a specificity of 98% was found for radiological imaging. ROC-curves showed a significant increase in diagnostic performance when radiology was added to results of palpation and age (p = 0.007). Radiological imaging tests have a large diagnostic value in the detection of breast cancer in addition to palpation and age. A sensitivity close to 100% could be reached.
