What does birads3 breast nodule mean?

Under breast B-ultrasound, according to the standards of British radiology, breast masses are classified into six categories according to birads, of which 123 are mainly benign and 456 are mainly malignant. What does birads3 mean? The key is that this type of lump is basically a benign nodule with a malignant chance of less than 5%. Most patients can be followed up and observed for a long time, with a breast B-ultrasound every 4 to 6 months.

The breast BI-RADS reporting system can be divided into six levels. Level zero requires integration of other tests; level one is negative; level two is good; level three is likely to be good and requires a follow-up visit in the short term; level four is extremely malignant and a puncture biopsy is recommended; level fourA indicates mild abnormality, level fourB is mild to moderate abnormality, level fourC is high but uncertain; level five is highly malignant; and level six has been pathologically confirmed to be malignant. Therefore, the third category generally means that the possibility of good is relatively high, and only regular follow-up visits, X-ray examinations or breast ultrasound examinations are required. It is generally recommended to have a follow-up visit every 3 months after the first discovery of a breast lump. If there is no significant change, it can be changed to once a month. There will be no problem with a follow-up visit in June, and a regular follow-up visit once a year will be sufficient.

If some patients have doubts, they can undergo core needle puncture under B-ultrasound to rule out malignancy. If breast cancer is confirmed, radical surgery should be performed immediately.

The BI-RADS 3 category of the left breast mass is the meaning of the imaging diagnosis grade classification. There is a low-echo mass in the left breast. The shape, form and aspect ratio of the mass can be divided into three categories. Generally, the probability of being good is over 98%. Regular follow-up visits can be conducted, and surgical treatment or other treatment methods can be determined based on the size of the mass. It is a way to judge whether a lump has become benign or malignant, and it is divided into 0-6. The higher the grade, the greater the possibility of malignancy. Category 3 is basically a benign change.

BI-RADS refers to the Breast Imaging Reporting System, which is an academic abbreviation for breast imaging diagnostic examinations. The BIRAD-3 you asked about refers to Class III: The disease is likely to be good and short-term follow-up is recommended. The confirmation is that the disease stabilizes or decreases during short-term follow-up (less than 6 months). If the disease becomes stable after 2 or 3 years of follow-up, grade III (likely to be good) will be changed to grade II (good).
