Positron Emission Mammography for Breast Cancer in Rajavithi Hospital.

CONCLUSION: There was a moderate PPV in this PEM study for breast cancer in Rajavithi Hospital, and investigators need further experience and training in interpreting PEM. The information of mammographic, ultrasonographic and clinical findings should be used together with PEM to make diagnostic decision. The addition of biopsies could also improve the efficacy of PEM studies. PMID: 27266227 [PubMed - in process]
