So, here's an example.
0:01
This woman actually had 3.
0:03
She had a February 2017, then
0:06
January 2019, and then February 2021.
0:09
She's kind of like on the every 2-year plan.
0:11
Um, 52-year-old with extremely dense breasts.
0:14
Look how dense they are on the MR, you can see.
0:16
Um, and the 3rd round, abbreviated
0:19
MR, you see this small, enhancing
0:22
mass, 6 millimeters in the left breast.
0:24
Now, could you see it before?
0:26
It certainly doesn't look actionable to me.
0:28
So this was, um, I think a very good catch again.
0:32
We went back to her mammogram, could not
0:34
find it on a tomosynthesis study, but
0:37
did a targeted ultrasound in this case.
0:39
And there it is.
0:40
You can see it on the far right.
0:42
A small round mass, very posterior
0:44
when she's lying supine, obviously.
0:46
And this was an invasive
0:47
ductal carcinoma, ERPR positive.
0:51
Here's another one.
0:53
This is a 70-year-old with extremely dense
0:55
breasts, negative mammo, screening ultrasound
0:59
actually had been performed five months prior.
1:02
Look at the mass.
1:03
Interesting, huh?
1:04
The second round abbreviated MR.
1:07
This was October 2018, and then November 22, 2020.
1:11
Sorry.
1:12
So about 2 years and nothing on the prior.
1:15
You really don't see a thing.
1:16
And again, remember, she had that screening
1:17
ultrasound 5 months prior to the November 2020 MR.
1:21
R.
1:21
5-millimeter mass by BI-RADS 5.
1:25
Here you go, targeted ultrasound not seen clearly
1:28
on the tomosynthesis, but targeted ultrasound
1:30
probably would have been seen with screening
1:31
ultrasound at this time, but not 5 months prior.
1:33
Curious.
1:34
This was an invasive ductal carcinoma.
1:36
Again, ERPR positive.
1:38
So, subsequent abbreviated MRIs had a
1:41
lower abnormal interpretation rate.
1:44
Higher PPV1, PPV2, um, compared to baseline.
1:48
That makes sense 'cause you've
1:48
got something to compare to.
1:50
Cancer detection was maintained on subsequent
1:53
rounds of abbreviated MR compared to the baseline.
1:56
That's very remarkable.
1:57
And all cancers detected on the subsequent
2:00
exams were still early stage, which is great.
