The management of borderline or high-risk breast lesions (HRLs) remains controversial. We propose a pragmatic evidence-based approach based on lesion type. For lobular carcinoma in situ with pleomorphism, papilloma with atypia, atypical ductal hyperplasia, and fibroepithelial lesions, surgical consultation and excision are recommended. Patients with other borderline or HRLs are referred for surgical consultation to discuss excision versus surveillance. Our recommendations align with American Society of Breast Surgeons guidelines, which aim to reduce unnecessary surgery and ensure appropriate follow-up.

National Centre for Epilepsy, Division of Clinical Neuroscience, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway. Electronic address:
Purpose: For next of kin (NK) to people with epilepsy (PWE) insufficient knowledge about the disease might have a negative impact on disease management, utilization of the health care system and conveyance of attitudes in the society. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree Norwegian NK to PWE called for and obtained relevant information about different epilepsy-related issues.

Characterisation of an indeterminate ovarian mass is important as it guides management and clinical outcomes. Ultrasound is the first-line modality in the assessment of ovarian tumours. When ovarian masses are indeterminate on ultrasound, MRI provides excellent resolution in tissue characterisation and enhancement patterns.

Background: Radiotherapy with or without concurrent chemotherapy is a standard of care treatment for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Upon completion, patients are referred for a post-treatment F-FDG PET/CT (Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography) scan to help guide ongoing management by assessing for the presence or absence of residual or recurrent disease and differentiating this from post-treatment inflammation. To improve objective reporting of response, we developed the Christie score.
