Ultrasound examination has inter-observer and intra-observer variability and a high false-positive rate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of the combined use of a deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system and ultrasound elastography with conventional ultrasound (US) in increasing specificity and reducing unnecessary breast lesions biopsies.Conventional US, CAD system, and strain elastography (SE) were retrospectively performed on 216 breast lesions before biopsy or surgery. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and biopsy rate were compared between conventional US and the combination of conventional US, SE, and CAD system.Of 216 lesions, 54 were malignant and 162 were benign. The addition of CAD system and SE to conventional US increased the AUC from 0.716 to 0.910 and specificity from 46.9% to 85.8% without a loss in sensitivity while 89.2% (66 of 74) of benign lesions in Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 4A lesions would avoid unnecessary biopsies.The addition of CAD system and SE to conventional US improved specificity and AUC without loss of sensitivity, and reduced unnecessary biopsies.Copyright © 2022.
