目的:本研究では,非腫瘤性病変(non-mass enhancement : NME)を有する乳房MRI造影病変の同定において,磁気共鳴画像法(magnetic resonance imaging : MRI)/超音波(ultrasound : US)fusion技術であるreal-time virtual sonography(RVS)を用いたsecond-look USの有用性を検証することを目的とした.方法:2015年6月から2020年4月までの間に,MRIで造影されたものの,その後の従来型B(conventional B: cB)モード画像法によるsecond-look USで検出されなかったNME病変を1つ以上有する継続症例を登録した.病変の仰臥位MRIを施行し,そのデータを用いてRVSを用いたsecond-look USを施行した.結果:NME 病変を有する20例21病変を対象とした.腹臥位MRIにおける病変全体径の中央値は23mm(範囲:5~63 mm)であった.仰臥位MRIにより21のNME病変がすべて同定され,RVSを用いたsecond-look USではそのうち18病変(86%)が検出された.RVSガイド下生検による病理組織学的評価の結果,18病変のうち9病変が良性,その他9病変が悪性であった.悪性の9病変のうち,2病変(22%)が浸潤癌であり,7病変(78%)が非浸潤性乳管癌であった.腹臥位MRIによる術前評価を行った5例のうち4例は良性と診断され,当初の予定通り手術が行われた.もう1例は悪性と診断され,対側の乳房温存手術が追加された.21のNME病変のうち3病変(14%)はRVS相関を認めず,24ヵ月間の経過観察後に良性と判定された.結論:本研究の結果から,cB モードsecond-look USで検出されないMRI造影NME病変の同定において,RVSを用いたsecond-look USが有用であることが示唆される.
Purpose : The aim of this study was to verify the utility of second-look ultrasound(US)using real-time virtual sonography(RVS), a magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)/US fusion technique, in identifying MRI-detected breast lesions with non-mass enhancement(NME). Methods : Consecutive patients who had one or more NME lesions detected by MRI yet occult on the subsequent second-look US in conventional B(cB)-mode imaging were enrolled in the study between June 2015 and April 2020. Supine MRI of the lesions was performed and, using its data, second-look US using RVS was performed. Results : Twenty patients with 21 NME lesions were included. The overall median lesion size on prone MRI was 23 mm(range, 5–63 mm). Supine MRI identified all the 21 NME lesions, and second-look US using RVS successfully detected 18(86%)of them. RVS-guided biopsy was performed for histopathological evaluation, showing that nine of the 18 lesions were benign and the other nine malignant. Of the nine malignant lesions, two(22%)were invasive cancer and seven(78%)were ductal carcinoma in situ. In four of five patients who underwent prone MRI for preoperative evaluation, the diagnosis was benign and surgery was conducted as originally planned. In the other patient, the diagnosis was malignant and contralateral breast-conserving surgery was added. Three(14%)of the 21 NME lesions had no RVS correlates and were judged to be benign after 24-month follow-up. Conclusion : The results suggest that second-look US using RVS helps identify MRI-detected NME lesions that are occult on cB-mode second-look US.
