ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the value of multi-parametric MRI in mammographically detected breast imaging reporting and data systems (BI-RADS) 3 to 4 exclusive microcalcifications. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 152 patients with mammographically detected BI-RADS 3 to 4 exclusive microcalcifications from January 2013 to December 2017. All patients underwent bilateral breast multi-parametric MRI before surgical biopsy. Microcalcifications were classified according to BI-RADS by two radiologists with more than 10 years′ experience in breast imaging. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity of BI-RADS 3 to 4 exclusive microcalcifications diagnosis by mammography and mammography plus MRI were calculated and compared using pathology as the gold standard. Results A total of 152 lesions (93 benign lesionsand 59 malignant lesions) were assessed in this study. The positive predictive value (PPV) of mammography for BI-RADS 3, 4A, 4B and 4C microcalcifications diagnosis were 22.2%(16/72),5.0%(1/20),48.5%(17/35) and 100.0%(25/25) respectively. The PPV of MRI for BI-RADS 2, 3, 4, 5 microcalcifications diagnosis were 1.6%(1/62),7.1%(2/28),72.2%(13/18) and 97.7%(43/44).The area under curve, sensitivity and specificity of mammography for BI-RADS 3 to 4 microcalcifications diagnosis were 0.676,72.9% and 60.2%. The area under curve, sensitivity and specificity of mammography plus MRI for BI-RADS 3 to 4 microcalcifications diagnosis were 0.982, 94.9% and 93.6%. Conclusions Multi-parametric MRI can improve the diagnostic accuracy in mammographically detected BI-RADS 3 to 4 exclusive microcalcifications, which is helpful to differentiate benign and malignant breast lesions with microcalcifications and avoid unnecessary biopsies.
