Overview
Mammography is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of breast lumps in women aged >40 years old. Ultrasound is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of breast lumps in women aged <40 years old.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Gold Standard
Mammography
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 within past 6 months, only ipsilateral mammography is needed.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of breast lumps in women aged <40 years old.[1]
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]
