ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical value of contrasted X-ray in diagnosis of breast lesions.Methods29 patients who were confirmed as breast lesions verified by surgery and histopathology were enrolled in this study.All the lesions were evaluated by plain and contrasted X-ray.The lesion detectability of X-ray,and contrasted series.Results29 patients had 26 malignant and 5 benign lesions.There were significant differences between benign and malignant tumors on enhancement homogenity,morphology and margin characteristics.According to the morphology character and enhancement pattem.The distribution proved significantly different ( x2 =26.43,P ＜ 0.05 ).The diagnostic indices for the lesions morphology had the sensitivity of 83.8％ (26/31) and specificity of 76.9％ (20/26).ConclusionEnhanced X-ray was better than plain exam on lesion detection.Benign and malignant breast tumors could be differentiated according to the morphology characteristic and enhancement pattern.
