Mammography is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of breast lumps in women aged>40 years old[1]
- If the patient had positive history of bilateral mammography,therefore; only ipsilateral mammography is needed
Ultrasound is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of breast lumps in women aged<40 years old.
The comparison of various diagnostic studies for breast lumps [2]
| Sensitivity | Specificity | |
|---|---|---|
| Ultrasound | 82% | 84% |
| Mammography | 49% | 89% |
Breast ultrasound has higher sensitivity and mammography has higher specificity. The accuracy of ultrasound reported as 84% and accuracy of mammography reported as 81% [2].
