Role of Preoperative Ultrasonography in Evaluating Early Lymphatic Metastasis in Patients with Breast Cancer
Abstract：Objective:To evaluate the role of preoperative color Doppler ultrasonography in detecting early lymphatic metastasis in patients with breast cancer.Method: 206 breast cancer patients who were taken prospective color Doppler ultrasound examination 1 week before operation were selected.The sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography were calculated with biopsy as a control.And the relationship between the indicators in ultrasonography and breast cancer lymph node metastasis were explored.Result: The sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography were 87.18% and 98.88%.And in this study,the factors in ultrasound examination had correlation with early breast cancer lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).Conclusion: Preoperative color Doppler ultrasonography can give the status of disease development and if have lymph node metastasisis are effective diagnosed,and there is a good effect detection for lymph node metastasis and breast cancer, and there is a guiding significance for clinical,is worthy of clinical promotion.
