Title: The diagnostic value of CDFI on breast masses
Abstract: Objective:To evaluate color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) of benign and malignant breast tumor diagnosis.Methods:218 pathologically confirmed cases of breast solid mass were detected by CDFI,and results were compared with pathological analysis.Results:218 cases of pathologically diagnosed,178 patients(81.7%) were benign,40 patients(18.3%) were malignant tumor.Compliance rate between ultrasonography and pathological diagnosis of benign tumors was 92.7%,in line with malignant tumors was 85.0%.Benign tumors showed mainly a uniform low echo,associated with echo around the capsule,which form was regular,no calcification,no blood flow or visible within a few color Doppler signals,the larger fibroids could be seen the rich color flow within the signal.Malignancy were irregular,ill-defined,polygonal edges or crab-like,mostly within the low echo,no capsule,the mass appeared in different form,was fine point-like,patchy,tangled,strip,linear,more common in fine punctate calcification.Benign and malignant tumors of the blood flow index were respectively 0.60±0.05,0.74±0.07,both had significant differences(P0.05).Conclusion:Color Doppler has good clinical value in differentiating benign and malignant tumors.
