| **Diagnostic mammography is considered as the first step
| |
| **If the last screening test is related to more than 6 months, both breast mammography is required to rule out occult malignancy
| |
| **No further evaluation is needed in case of clearly benign mass in mammography
| |
| **Ultrasound imaging is required for the rest of cases appeared in mammography
| |
| ***Stereotactic biopsy is recommended in negative ultrasound findings addition to suspicious mammographic results

| **Ultrasound or mammography is suggested for initial management of women aged between 30 to 39 years
| |
| **Ultrasound is the first step for women< 30 years presenting with palpable mass

| Approach to breast lumps in women aged >40 years based on mammographic results<ref name="pmid27814822" /> :
| |
| *If mammographic results become negative,the next step is targeted ultrasound
| |
| **Negative ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 1, then clinical follow-up is needed
| |
| **Benign ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 2, then clinical follow-up is needed
| |
| **Probably benign results considered as BI-RADS 3, then ultrasound short interval follow-up is needed
| |
| **Suspicious ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 4 or 5, then core-needle biopsy is needed
| |
| *If mammographic results show only fatty tissue, considered as BI-RADS 1, then clinical follow-up is needed
| |
| *If mammographic results show benign mass, considered as BI-RADS 2, then clinical follow-up
| |
| *If mammographic results are in favor of probably benign lumps, the next step is targeted ultrasound
| |
| **Negative ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 3,then mammographic short interval follow-up is required
| |
| **Benign ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 2, then clinical follow-up is required
| |
| **Probably benign ultrasound results considered as BI-RADS 3, then ultrasound short interval follow-up
| |
| **Suspicious ultrasound results is considered as BI-RADS 4 or 5,then core needle biopsy is required
| |
| *If mammographic result is in favor of suspicious lesion, the next step is ultrasound to determine biopsy plan
| |
| **Considered as BI-RADS 4 or 5, then core needle biopsy is required
