TL;DR: The Adjunct Screening With Tomosynthesis or Ultrasound in Women With Mammography-Negative Dense Breasts' interim analysis shows that ultrasound has better incremental BC detection than tomosynthesis in mammography-negative dense breasts at a similar FP-recall rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Evidence and expert consensus shows an increase of musculoskeletal ultrasound indications, particularly for the shoulder, and four new A evidence levels were found for the hip, knee, ankle, and foot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Alberto Tagliafico,Bianca Bignotti,Federica Rossi,Alessio Signori,Maria Pia Sormani,Francesca Valdora,Massimo Calabrese,Nehmat Houssami +7 more
TL;DR: CESM has a high sensitivity but very low specificity and high-quality studies are required to assess the accuracy of CESM in unselected cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of microcalcification clusters on 2D digital mammography (FFDM) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT): does DBT underestimate microcalcification clusters? Results of a multicentre study.
Alberto Tagliafico,Giovanna Mariscotti,Manuela Durando,Carmen Stevanin,Giulio Tagliafico,Lucia Martino,Bianca Bignotti,Massimo Calabrese,Nehmat Houssami +8 more
TL;DR: The BI-RADS classification of MC differs for FFDM and DBT in 11/107 cases, and in 4/107 DBT may have missed some malignant and high-risk lesions and the ‘underclassification’ on DBT was correct, potentially avoiding unnecessary biopsies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability of side-to-side ultrasound cross-sectional area measurements of lower extremity nerves in healthy subjects
TL;DR: In general, the healthy contralateral side can be used as an internal control in peripheral nerve ultrasound and side‐to‐side differences were not statistically significant at any level.
