Popis: | The aim of this study is to investigate the accuracy of tumor size assessment by shear wave elastography (SWE) in invasive breast cancer and also evaluated histopathologic factors influencing the accuracy. A total of 102 lesions of 102 women with breast cancers of which the size was 3 cm or smaller were included and retrospectively analyzed. Tumor size on B-mode ultrasound (US) and SWE were recorded and compared with the pathologic tumor size. If tumor size measurements compared to pathological size were within ±3 mm, they were considered as accurate. The relationship between the accuracy and histopathologic characteristics were evaluated. The mean pathologic tumor size was 16.60 ± 6.12 mm. Tumor sizes on SWE were significantly different from pathologic sizes (18.00 ± 6.71 mm, P |
