Comprehensive Risk System Based on Shear Wave Elastography and BI-RADS Categories in Assessing Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis of Invasive Breast Cancer—A Multicenter Study

Comprehensive Risk System Based on Shear Wave Elastography and BI-RADS Categories in Assessing Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis of Invasive Breast Cancer—A Multicenter Study

PurposeTo develop a risk stratification system that can predict axillary lymph node (LN) metastasis in invasive breast cancer based on the combination of shear wave elastography (SWE) and conventional ultrasound.Materials and MethodsA total of 619 participants pathologically diagnosed with invasive...
