A family history of breast cancer was found in 4.38% of patients. The infiltrating carcinoma was non-specific (90.84%) and grade II SBRm in 69.32% of patients. Tumor involvement predominated in the left breast (48.21%). Stage T3\/T4 predominated, accounting for 85.06% of cases. 99% of patients had benefited from diagnostic imaging consisting of mammography and\/or breast ultrasound, with only the 5 cases of necrotic ulcerated tumours not having undergone diagnostic work-up. In our study, 93.62% of cancers diagnosed were classified as BIRADS 4 or 5 on imaging. Tumors initially classified as BIRADS 3 (5.38%) turned out to be breast cancers. In the initial extension work-up, 77.29% of patients underwent a thoraco-abdomino-pelvic CT scan, 55.18% underwent abdominal ultrasound and 51% underwent chest radiography. Only 16 patients (3.19%) underwent scintigraphy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46377946644631,"sku":"9786208185268","price":6428.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9786208185268.webp?v=1768762525","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/initial-breast-cancer-extension-assessment-using-medical-imaging-9786208185268","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
