AI Article Synopsis
- A study involved 20 patients with abnormal nipple discharge, who underwent two imaging methods: conventional galactography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) galactography.
- The results showed that CEUS galactography had a 100% detection rate for intraductal papillomas, while conventional galactography had a 92.31% detection rate.
- CEUS galactography not only detected all lesions but also accurately localized them for surgery, making it an effective tool for assessing intraductal breast lesions.
Article Abstract
Twenty patients with pathologic nipple discharge underwent conventional galactography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) galactography. Images were reviewed for detection of suspicious lesions. Lesion localization information from CEUS galactography was recorded. We included 25 lesions from the 20 included patients. The pathological results revealed 13 intraductal papillomas. The detective rates of intraductal papilloma by conventional galactography and CEUS galactography were 92.31% and 100%, respectively. All the preoperative localizations of lesions from CEUS galactography were in accordance with the surgical detections. CEUS galactography is a highly effective tool for the detection of intraductal breast lesions, and it could provide accurate lesion localization information for an optimal surgical design.
