“The Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) recommends that women with a BI-RADS category 3 (probably benign) lesion get a six-month diagnostic mammogram, with follow-up continued for the next two to three years until long-term stability is demonstrated,” said Dr. Edward Sickl...
For diagnostic mammograms, symptoms at time of mammogram (OR = 0.47; 95% CI, 0.39-0.56) and being obese (OR = 0.79; 95% CI, 0.65-0.98) were associated with earlier follow-up. Conclusions: Several woman-level characteristics were associated with timely follow-up after an abnormal screening ...
Nearly all had a second mammogram, called a diagnostic mammogram, after the screening scan. From there, many went on to have additional scans and even biopsies to remove a bit of tissue for examination to determine if they had cancer. Those who went on to have a biopsy paid the ...
We compared rates of follow‐up of a diagnostic test within 180 days, as well as likelihood of mastectomy or excision procedure and a diagnosis of breast cancer. Following an abnormal screening mammogram, 97.5% of women with diabetes had a diagnostic procedure within 180 days compared to 97.9%...

BackgroundGiven the fragmentation of outpatient care, timely follow-up of abnormal diagnostic imaging results remains a challenge. We hypothesized that an
Of these, 1,066 (52.8%) completed a follow-up diagnostic colonoscopy within 12 months of their FIT test. The proportion completing a FIT ranged from 47.2% to 60.9% (data not shown) across health systems, highlighting the importance of controlling for health system in subsequent analyses. The...
Two independent radiologists read the mammogram as well as the supplemented ultrasound (in case of breast density ACR type 3 and 4). In the case of discordance a third expert considered whether further examination was indicated or not.3,266 diagnostic procedures ended with BI-RADS 3 result and...
When there is no record of ending the routine hospital follow-up, the retrieval date was considered as the last date of follow-up. If a visit or a diagnostic mammography was related to a patient that presented with symptoms, the related visit and the related diagnostic mammogram were not ...
