ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the practical value of 99m Tc-MIBI scintimammography and breast X-ray in the detection of breast cancer. Methods 100 female patients with 106 suspected focuses of breast cancer on clinical examination underwent 99m Tc-MIBI scintimammography and breast molybdenum target X-ray, and the results were compared with the pathological diagnosis. Results Compared with the histopathologic diagnosis , the sensitivity of molybdenum target X-ray for detecting primary breast cancer was 44.6% and the positive predictability was 31.7%. The specificity of 99m Tc-MIBI was 87.8% and the positive predictability was 76.9%. Conclusions In comparison with breast X-ray, 99m Tc-MIBI scintimammography is of greater clinical value in the diagnosis of breast cancer.
