Article Synopsis
- * This study assessed the effectiveness of MRM in evaluating unclear breast lesions classified as BIRADS 3/4 based on standard mammography and ultrasound, using histopathological results as the reference point.
- * Results showed MRM had high sensitivity (85%) and specificity (90%), making it a valuable tool for clarifying uncertain findings in breast cancer screenings, thereby minimizing unnecessary biopsies and follow-ups.
