Abstract

Objective To explore the value of mammography in the diagnosis of breast tumor.Methods The mammographic signs of 60 cases with breast tumor and the reasons for misdiagnosis were analyzed retrospectively.Results 60 cases were confirmed by pathology,left breast cancer 38 cases,while 22 cases of right breast cancer.X-ray signs included mass in 48 cases,increased local density asymmetry or structural distortion in 7 cases,malignant calcification in 5 cases.X-ray diagnosed accuracy of 55 cases(91%),misdiagnosed 4 cases(7%),missed 1 cases(2%).Conclusion The mammography is convenient,fast and practical,high detection rate.It is very valuable in the diagnosis of early breast tumor with malignant calcification performance-based.Atypical signs of breast cancer and dense breast are the main reason for misdiagnosis.Any asymmetry in the local density increased,the focal structural distortions,and dense micro-calcification should be combined with ultrasound,MRI examination.
