✦ Synopsis


BACKGROUND.

A probabilistic approach to the classification of fine-needle aspirates (FNAs) of the breast recently was recommended and received endorsement from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In this system, FNAs are classified as benign, indeterminate/atypical, suspicious/probably malignant, and malignant, but to the authors' knowledge the use of these diagnostic categories has not been evaluated on a large scale. Furthermore, this classification scheme has not been applied to FNAs of nonpalpable lesions of the breast obtained under imaging guidance. Thus, the current study focused on whether the diagnostic categories could be applied usefully to ultrasound-guided FNAs (US-FNAs) of nonpalpable breast lesions.

Background and Objectives: Open breast biopsy of palpable breast masses is widely accepted. Now, the use of high-resolution, real-time ultrasound (US) makes it easy to detect nonpalpable or small breast nodules, as well as palpable breast masses. Methods: We performed fine-needle aspiration biopsy (
