Overview
Mammogram may be performed to detect the breast cancer associated with Paget's disease of the breast, but is not always a reliable procedure for detecting Paget's disease of the breast.
Other Imaging Findings
Mammogram
In clinical suspicion of Paget's disease of the breast, mammography can help to detect the underlying malignancy, but is not always a reliable procedure for detecting Paget's disease of the breast.
- It has limited reliability in the detection of underlying DCIS in women with Paget's disease.[1]
- Mammography findings include:[2]
- Skin thickening
- Malignant calcification
- Masses at the level of the nipple
- Architectural distortion
- Nipple retraction
However, the literature reports that the mammography can be negative in 22%–50% of patients. As underlying carcinoma is common even in women with a benign mammogram and no palpable mass, the breast ultrasound and MRI may be useful in detecting the lesion. Ultrasound can be considered a part of initial evaluation and helpful for increasing sensitivity of mammography.
