Breast Cancer Screening with Abbreviated Breast MRI: 3-year Outcome Analysis.

Background Data are limited regarding the performance of abbreviated screening breast MRI during consecutive years and the characteristics of breast cancers missed and detected with it. Purpose To assess the longitudinal diagnostic performance of abbreviated screening MRI and to determine whether the screening outcomes of abbreviated MRI differed between yearly time periods for 3 consecutive years. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included 1975 consecutive women who underwent abbreviated screening MRI between September 2015 and August 2018. Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories 3-5 defined positive results, and BI-RADS categories 1-2 defined negative results. Cancer detection rate (CDR), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), abnormal interpretation rate (AIR), and interval cancer rate were assessed annually. Yearly performance measures were compared with the Fisher exact test by using the permutation method. Clinical-pathologic and imaging characteristics of the missed and detected cancers were compared by using the Fisher exact test and the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results A total of 1975 women (median age, 49 years; interquartile range, 44-56 years) underwent 3037 abbreviated MRI examinations over 3 years. CDR (year 1 to year 3, 6.9-10.7 per 1000 examinations), positive predictive value for recall (9.7% [six of 62] to 15.6% [12 of 77]), positive predictive value for biopsy (31.6% [six of 19] to 63.2% [12 of 19]), sensitivity (75.0% [six of eight] to 80.0% [12 of 15]), and specificity (93.5% [807 of 863] to 94.1% [1041 of 1106]) were highest in year 3, and AIR (7.1% [62 of 871] to 6.9% [77 of 1121]) was lowest in year 3. However, all outcome measures did not differ statistically between years 1, 2, and 3 (all P > .05). The interval cancer rate was 0.66 per 1000 examinations (two of 3037). Thirty-eight breast cancers were identified in 36 women; 29 were detected with abbreviated MRI, but nine were missed. Of these, seven were detected with other imaging modalities after negative results at the last screening MRI examination, and two were interval cancers. All missed cancers were node-negative early-stage invasive cancers and were smaller (median size, 0.8 cm vs 1.2 cm; P = .01) than detected cancers. Conclusion Screening outcome measures of abbreviated MRI were sustained without significant differences between 3 consecutive years. All cancers missed at abbreviated MRI were node-negative invasive cancers and tended to be smaller than detected cancers. © RSNA, 2021 See also the editorial by Lee in this issue.
