Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Positive predictive value of breast screening with US

    Stability for 1 year of follow-up is needed for the confirmation of benign lesions if they do not undergo biopsy.

    1 year after enrollment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Sensitivity

    1 year after enrollment

  • Specificity

    1 year after enrollment

  • Diagnostic accuracy

    1 year after enrollment

Study Arms (1)

Breast masses detected with screening US

Those assessed with conventional B-mode US alone and those assessed with combined elastography and color doppler ultrasonography along with B-mode US.

Device: Ultrasonography

Interventions

Comparison of B-mode US alone and combined use of elasto-doppler US along with B-mode US.

Also known as: Aixplorer system (SuperSonic Imagine, France), EUB-series/HV-ASCENDUS (Hitachi Medical, Japan)

Study Population

Population will consist of asymptomatic women who visit the hospital for breast screening. The sites are located in 4 cities of South Korea.

You may qualify if:

  • Women aged 30 years or older screened with breast ultrasound without specific symptoms
  • Women who underwent mammography within 3 months which showed no abnormality except for dense breast
  • Women who had at least one breast mass of BI-RADS category 3 or higher.

You may not qualify if:

  • Women with breast implants
  • Women who are unwilling or unable to provide informed consent
  • Lesions larger than 3 cm
  • Lesions that are previously noted and followed-up in the same hospital
