Breast cancer mammographic diagnosis performance in a public health institution: a retrospective cohort study

ConclusionsThe results are appropriate when compared to the values proposed by the BIRADS 5th edition. Additionally, the study provided self-reflection considering our radiological practice, which is essential for improvements and collaboration regarding breast cancer detection. It may stimulate better radiological practice performance and continuing education, despite possible infrastructure and facility limitations.Main Messages• Accurate quality performance rates are possible despite financial and governmental limitations.• Low-income institutions should develop standardised teamwork to improve radiological practice.• Regular mammography audits may help to increase the quality of public health systems.
