MAMMOGRAM AND ULTRASOUND EVALUATION OF BREAST LESIONS WITH FNAC CORRELATION

Objectives: This research paper is to characterize mammographic and ultrasonographic features of breast lesion with FNAC correlation and to compare sensitivity of mammography with ultrasonography in diagnosing benign and malignant breast lesions. Cross-sectional study in 66 patients Materials And Methods: who were referred to the Department of Radiodiagnosis with breast lesions and having BIRADS 2 and above on imaging from January 2023 to December 2023. Our data indicate that sensitivity and specicity of ultrasound Result: was statistically signicantly greater than mammography in patients with breast lesions for the detection of breast cancer and benign lesions particularly in dense breast women. The denitive features of benign and malignant lesions were correlating with Conclusion: FNAC, so if the lesion is found to be 100% benign (BI-RADS 2 category) in USG and mammography, FNAC may be avoided. Combined USG and mammography yielded the best result and can be used as a screening modality to detect malignancy earlier and to treat the patient earlier.
