BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy and effectiveness of automated breast volume scanning (ABVS) and @entity8566 ( @entity8566 ) in the detection of @entity0 in a large population group with a long-term follow-up, and to investigate whether different ultrasound systems may influence the estimation of @entity5 detection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional review board approval was obtained for this retrospective study, and informed consent was waived. From September 2010 to August 2011, a total of 1,866 ABVS and 3,700 @entity8566 @entity1 , who underwent these procedures at our institute, were included in this study. @entity5 occurring during the study and subsequent follow-up were evaluated. The reference standard was a combination of histology and follow-up imaging (>= 12 months). The recall rate, @entity5 detection yield, diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and positive ( @entity2286 ) and negative (NPV) predictive values were calculated with exact 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS: The recall rate was 2.57 per 1,000 (48/1,866) for ABVS and 3.57 per 1,000 (132/3,700) for @entity8566 , with ? significant difference (p=0.048). The @entity5 detection yield was 3.8 per 1,000 for ABVS and 2.7 per 1,000 for @entity8566 . The diagnostic accuracy was 97.7% for ABVS and 96.5% for @entity8566 with statistical significance (p=0.018). The specificity of ABVS and @entity8566 were 97.8%, 96.7%, respectively (p=0.022). CONCLUSIONS: ABVS shows a comparable diagnostic performance to @entity8566 . ABVS is an effective supplemental tool for mammography in @entity0 detection in a large population.
