Abstract
OBJECTIVE We herein compared the diagnostic accuracy of the BI-RADS, ABVS, SWE, and combined techniques for the classification of breast lesions. METHODS Breast lesions were appraised using the BI-RADS classification system as well as the combinations of BI-RADS plus ABVS (BI-RADS + ABVS) and BI-RADS plus SWE (BI-RADS + SWE), and both methods (BI-RADS + ABVS + SWE) by two specialties Medical Ultrasound physician. The Fisher's exact and χ2 tests were performed to compare the degree of malignancy for the various methods with a pathology ground truth. Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were generated and the corresponding area under the curve (AUC) values were determined to test the diagnostic efficacy of the various methods and identify the optimal SWE cut-off indicative of malignancy. RESULTS The incidence of the retraction phenomenon on ABVS images of the malignant group was significantly higher (P < .001) than that of the benign group. The specificity, sensitivity, and positive and negative predictive values of the BI-RADS classification were 88.72, 79.38, 83.70, and 85.50%, respectively. BI-RADS plus SWE-Max exhibited enhanced specificity, sensitivity, and positive and negative predictive values of 88.72, 92.78, 85.70, and 94.40%, respectively. Similarly, when BI-RADS + ABVS was utilized, the sensitivity and negative predictive value increased to 95.88 and 96.40%, respectively. BI-RADS + ABVS + SWE possessed the highest overall sensitivity (96.91%), specificity (94.74%), and positive (93.10%) and negative (97.70%) predictive values from all four indices. CONCLUSION ABVS and SWE can reduce the subjectivity of BI-RADS. As a result, BI-RADS + ABVS + SWE resulted in the best diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is increasingly widely used in breast cancer treatment, and accurate evaluation of its response provides essential information for treatment and prognosis. Thus, the imaging tools used to quantify the disease response are critical in evaluating and managing patients treated with NAC. We discussed the recent progress, advantages, and disadvantages of common imaging methods in assessing the efficacy of NAC for breast cancer.
