Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of Kaiser score for breast lesions presenting as non-mass enhancement. METHODS: We collected data from patients with breast lesions presenting as non-mass enhancement on preoperative DCE-MRI between January, 2014 and June, 2019. All the cases were confirmed by surgical pathology or puncture biopsy. With pathology results as the gold standard, we evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of Kaiser score and MRI BI-RADS classification and the consistency between the diagnostic results by the two methods and the pathological results. RESULTS: =0.021). CONCLUSIONS: The Kaiser score system provides a diagnostic strategy for BI-RADS classification of breast lesions with non-mass enhancement and has a better diagnostic efficacy than BI-RADS classification alone. The use of Kaiser score can significantly improve the diagnostic specificity of such breast lesions for inexperienced radiologists.
