Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women around the ‎world. ‎
‎Mammography and ultrasound are the main imaging diagnostic tools of ‎detection and diagnosis of breast cancer.‎
Diagnosis by ultrasound and mammogram depends mainly on the BI-‎RADS system assigned by the ACR which depends mainly on the ‎morphological features (shape, margins, orientation, echo-pattern, ‎calcifications and associated posterior features).‎
Pathological tumor grades are used to determine the type of management of ‎patients with breast cancer.‎
The purpose of our study to predict tumor grade in patients with breast ‎cancer from sono-mammographic morphological features (shape, margins, ‎calcifications, orientation and associated posterior features).‎
Aim of the work:‎
The aim of this study is to correlate ultrasound and mammographic ‎morphological features with pathological tumor grade.‎
Patients:‎
The study carried out on 57 patients histo-pathologically diagnosed as having ‎malignant breast lesions referred to breast imaging unit at Main Alexandria ‎university and GamalAbd El Nasser hospitals for dedicated full field digital ‎mammography (FFDM) and sono-mammographic and assessment.
