Ultrasound classification of non-mass breast lesions following BI-RADS presents high positive predictive value.

Stratifying the malignancy risk of breast NMLs using the BI-RADS the sensitivity and positive and predictive value are promising, but the likelihood of malignancy of malignant NMLs is underestimated, and that of benign NMLs is overestimated. The solution may be that to separate NMLs from breast masses and use different malignancy risk stratification protocols.
