Albert Einstein
Discovered
Photo Electric Effect
ALBERT EINSTEIN WAS AWARDED THE NOBEL
PRIZE FOR PHYSICS IN 1921 FOR HIS SERVICES TO
THEORETICAL PHYSICS, AND ESPECIALLY FOR
HIS DISCOVERY OF THE LAW OF
PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT.
• It is the photoelectric absorption that is responsible for most
of the absorption in a mammogram that creates the
contrast in the image.
• Arthur Holly Compton was awarded the Nobel Prize for
physics in 1927 for his discovery of the effect named after
him.
Arthur Holly Compton
“The Compton Effect”
• The Compton effect is considered to be responsible for the
bulk of scattering effects in radiology.

About 39,620 women in the U.S. are expected to
die in 2014 from breast cancer, though death rates
have been decreasing since 1989 — especially in
women under 50. These decreases are thought to
be the result of treatment advances, earlier
detection through screening, and increased
awareness.
For women in the U.S., breast cancer death
rates are higher than those for any other
cancer, besides lung cancer
In 2013, there were more than 2.8 million breast
cancer survivors in the US.
1.4%
86.5%
38,644,885
In 2014, an estimated 232,340 new
cases of invasive breast cancer are
expected to be diagnosed in women
in the U.S., along with 64,640 new
cases of non-invasive (in situ) breast
cancer.
About 2,240 new cases of invasive
breast cancer are expected to be
diagnosed in men in 2014. A man’s
lifetime risk of breast cancer is
about 1 in 1,000.
• White women are slightly more likely to develop
breast cancer than African-American women.
However, in women under 45, breast cancer is more
common in African-American women than white
women. Overall, African-American women are more
likely to die of breast cancer. Asian, Hispanic, and
Native-American women have a lower risk of
developing and dying from breast cancer.
The most significant risk factors for breast
cancer are gender (being a woman) and
age (growing older).

HOW DO YOU ACHIEVE
THIS?
ACR WEBSITE
• In order to receive the ACR’s Breast Imaging Center of
Excellence designation, a center must be fully
accredited in:
Mammography by the ACR (or an FDA-approved
state accrediting body)(AIT), Stereotactic Breast
Biopsy by the ACR,
Breast Ultrasound by the ACR
(including the Ultrasound-Guided Breast Biopsy
module).
ACR WEBSITE
• Effective January 1, 2016, Breast MRI by the ACR. (Centers
may also satisfy this requirement if they refer their patients to
another facility for breast MRI and breast MR-guided biopsy
outside their center. This facility must be accredited by the
ACR in Breast MRI and may be within their facility system or
in a referral relationship with the Center of Excellence.)

BENEFITS OF BREAST IMAGING
CENTER OF EXCELLENCE
• Modality accreditation gets a gold star for your facility.
• Enhanced personnel training(Additional training needed).
• Increased research abilities(National mammography database for
free).
• New breast imaging technologies(3D, Automated breast volume
scanner).
• Higher reputation for your facility worldwide.
• In the late 1980s, stereotactic imaging went
through a short trial period where it was used
for preop needle localizations.
• 1986 the first unit was brought to the United
States and installed.
• 102 patients with SCNB prior to surgical excision 23 cancers
detected with 1 “miss” due to lesion position and unstable
imaging
• 96% agreement rate (more acceptable)
• And as Paul Harvey would put it (Now you know the rest of
the story).
HISTORY OF
STEREOTACTIC CORE BIOPSY
• In the Beginning
• 1976 – First developed at the Karolinska Hospital in
Stockholm
• Stereotactic techniques are rooted in the theory of
triangulation
• Initial utilization was fine needle aspiration
• Testing yielded 90% accuracy and 5% false
negatives (deemed unacceptable).
• In 1990, Dr. Steven Parker and his colleagues
published "Stereotactic Breast Biopsy with a Biopsy
Gun."
• Steve Parker MD in conjunction with Fischer
Imaging adapted the Bard Biopsy Gun, fitted with
an 18 ga Tru-Cut needle fitted for use with the addon units.
•18 ga needles did not provide accurate
sampling
•16 ga and 14 ga needles next advancement
•Currently 11 and 9 ga are the most popular
needle-probes used but 8 & 7g are gaining
popularity.
•Patient movement on upright add-on units
prompted development of prone tables.
6
5/27/2014
• First prone table in the United States was installed at
the University of Chicago in 1986.
• Establishment of minimum core samples increased
from 3 to 5 for masses and 10 for calcifications, but
when larger core bx’s were introduced, less cores
are required
•Earlier systems included digitizers, dialed in
coordinates, extended processing film/screen
• Biopsy time procedure took 2 to 3 hours
•1992 – advancements into digital imaging
reduced procedure time down to 45 mintues
• ABBI, Site Select, Rubicor, enbloc(intact), are
further advancements in tissue sampling allowing
for larger core samples, in some cases the entire
lesion.
A FEW CPT CODES AND
CHARGES
PRINCIPLES OF STEREOLOGY
• Stereology- deals with the transformation
of 2-D observations to 3-D information
using mathematical, statistical and
geometrical tools
• A familiar comparison is the stereoscopy
the brain accomplishes through our visual
system
• Hold your finger up to nose, close one
eye, then close the other… your finger
appears to shift slightly
7
5/27/2014
•Now focus in the screen, keeping your finger in
view, close one eye, then the other… the shift
seems greater
•The distance of the apparent shift of your
finger in relation to the reference object (your
finger or the screen), is called Parallax
•Our brain solves the parallax problem (the
difference in relation to the reference) and
accurately perceives the distance to the object
•The result is the accurate, quantitative
computer localization of the abnormality in the
breast in three dimensions, horizontal, vertical
and depth (XYZ)(HVD)
•This is provided by the following:
•Stereo pair: two images acquired with x-ray
tube at two different positions
•The resulting depth of perception allows us to know
how far to reach out to accurately touch the object
•On a mammogram, you can pretty much accurately
determine the vertical and horizontal measurements—
but accurate measurement of depth is elusive
•Stereotactic breast localization involves the same
principles that the brain and eyes use to accurately
see a three dimensional object
• The apparent movement of the lesion
between projections is referred to as parallax
shift and is calculated relative to the
reference point. The terms parallax shift and
apparent movement are used because the
breast and lesion do not actually move
between projections; however, the
projection of the image on the u-v plane
does move in a predictable way
• This phenomenon is analogous to the use of parallax shift
in astronomy. The distance of apparent lesion shift
between images can be used to calculate the depth z of
the lesion. The location of the center of rotation of the
stereotactic biopsy system must be known to understand
the significance of the apparent motion of the lesion.
8
5/27/2014
Diagram illustrates the projection of an image on a
2D (u-v) plane at +15°, 0°, and −15° angulation.
• If a lesion is located at the center of rotation, the parallax
shift is 0; a lesion located farther away from the center of
rotation along the z axis will demonstrate an increased
apparent motion or parallax shift on the stereo images. It is
essential for an operator to know where the reference point
and center of rotation are located on the imaging unit.
TRIANGULATION
TRIANGULATION
• A way to localize a finding within the
breast on two orthogonal views.
• A three dimensional position of a finding
for subsequent imaging or biopsy.
• Make sure all images involved in
triangulation have the nipples at the
same level and the breast pointing the
same way. Then draw an imaginary line
through the lesions will predict its location
on the third view.

• A scout image is used to locate and center the
lesion in the biopsy window. Once the lesion is
properly positioned, a pair of images are obtained
after moving the x-ray tube and detector assembly
+15° and −15° relative to the 0° position on the scout
image. This controlled movement about a known
center of rotation creates a pair of images with 30°
of separation between projections.
• Basic geometry is used to determine the location of
the lesion in the 3D coordinate system with the paired
images. Imagine an x ray leaving the tube (a fixed
point with respect to the receptor), extending
through the center of the lesion, and then
intersecting a point on the u-v imaging plane. These
two endpoints—the x-ray tube focal spot and the
lesion center on the u-v plane—define the location of
the x ray in the Cartesian coordinate system.
11
5/27/2014
• The lesion is known to be located somewhere
along the x ray between these two endpoints. An
additional projection is needed to determine its
exact location and involves rotating the tube and
receptor assembly about the center of rotation
while the position of the breast (and lesion) remains
fixed. The second projection is 30° from the first
projection. In practice, a +15° image and a −15°
image are produced.
• Because in theory the lesion has not moved
between projections, the two x rays that are
responsible for creating the image of the lesion
center on the +15° and −15° u-v planes must
intersect at the center of the lesion in real space. By
equating these two x rays, the x, y, and z
coordinates of the lesion can be determined with
basic trigonometry

Reference point: the coordinates are
determined from a reference point
which is located on either the,
A) Compression Paddle (Lorad)

proximal aspect of the breast
B) Breast Support

distal aspect of the breast
• The primary purpose of the coordinate
system is to identify a specific threedimensional point in the breast,
• which will be used as the target for the
needle biopsy.
• • X or H expresses the horizontal plane.
• • Y or V expresses the vertical plane.
• • Z or D expresses the depth.

• Every prone table on the market
has a built in safety stroke margin
about 4-6 mm of safety zone not
factored into the stroke margin

FISCHER/SIEMENS WILL GIVE YOU
A WARNING
STROKE
• The stroke is different on each brand of needle sets.
• For an example for Mammotome the stroke is 19
• For Suros the stroke is 20, Eviva is 23
• For SenoRx the stroke is 19
• Make sure your stroke isn’t changed by accident.
The stroke goes by your needle length/aperture.
20 mm sample notch
8mm dead space
10 mm Center of sample notch
10+8=18 in order to get desired target in center of sample notch
Throw(Stroke) of needle is 23mm
18-23= -5 so you set your z to -5 when advancing biopsy device into
the breast

ANNOTATIONS
• You want your needle underneath
the calcifications when using
prone tables.
• Why do you think this is?
• Most all consultants will teach you
this.
20
5/27/2014
• Answers……
• Works with gravity
• Can see cals/masses without the needle covering them
up
• If you have to retarget you can see the calcs/masses to
do so
• Only need to move half the clock 9-3
• Can see the post clip better
• The Rumor is if you can’t see the calcs then
that means the needle is perfectly on them.
This is not true……

KVP (QUALITY)
SOME MORE TROUBLE SHOOTING
CHANGING YOUR TECHNIQUES AND
TECHNIQUE CHARTS.
• kVp is the energy beam controlled by voltage. It is
the difference controlled b/t the cathode and the
anode. The higher the kVp the more energetic the
beam of the x-ray. Remember high contrast (low
kVp) has lots of blacks and whites. Low contrast
(high kVp) gives you lots of grays because high
penetration of beam.
• kVp controls your contrast
• That is subject contrast and radiograph contrast.
MAS (QUANTITY)
• The ma control determines how much current is
allowed to flow through the filament which is
the cathode side of the tube. More current,
more electrons. The effect of the mA is linear. If
you want to double the number of photons,
you double the mAs.

• If the breast is thin and you need to build up
thickness. You can turn a paddle around and
tape to image receptor for added thickness.
Remember to take paddle into consideration
when calculating depth
• If lesion near chest wall you can bring patient’s
arm thru hole in table to drop breast down
farther. Remember to give patient something
to rest hand on.

LETS TALK ABOUT BI-RADS
• What does it stand for?
• BI-RADS is an acronym for
Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System, a
quality assurance tool originally designed for
use with mammography. The system is a
collaborative effort of many health groups but
is published and trademarked by the
American College of Radiology (ACR).
• The assessment categories were developed for mammography and
later adapted for the MRI and Ultrasound Atlases. The summary of
each category, given below, is identical for all 3 modalities.
• Category 6 was added in the 4th edition of the Mammography Atlas.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
BI-RADS Assessment Categories are:
0: Incomplete
1: Negative
2: Benign finding(s)
3: Probably benign
4: Suspicious abnormality
5: Highly suggestive of malignancy
6: Known biopsy – proven malignancy
BI-RADS 4
• A BI-RADS classification of 4 or 5 warrants biopsy to
further evaluate the offending lesion. Some experts
believe that the single BI-RADS 4 classification does
not adequately communicate the risk of cancer to
doctors and recommend a subclassification
scheme:
• 4A: low suspicion for malignancy
• 4B: intermediate suspicion of malignancy
• 4C: moderate concern, but not classic for
malignancy
• The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System
(BI-RADS) initiative, instituted by the ACR, was
begun in the late 1980s to address a lack of
standardization and uniformity in mammography
practice reporting. An important component of
the BI-RADS initiative is the lexicon, a dictionary of
descriptors of specific imaging features.
59
5/27/2014
• The BI-RADS lexicon has always been data driven,
using descriptors that previously had been shown in
the literature to be predictive of benign and
malignant disease. Once established, the BI-RADS
lexicon provided new opportunities for quality
assurance, communication, research, and improved
patient care. The history of this lexicon illustrates a
series of challenges and instructive successes that
provide a valuable guide for other groups that
aspire to develop similar lexicons in the future.
BREAST PATHOLOGY
TDLU
(TERMINAL DUCTAL LOBULAR UNIT)
• Primary anatomical and functional unit of the
breast
• Terminal acini (Ductules)
• Extralobular terminal duct
• All major lesions of the breast are believed to
arise from the mammary epithelium of the TDLU
• Fibroadenomas, Cysts, Apocrine cysts, radial
scars, invasive ductal and lobular carcinoma
• Exceptions are intraductal papilloma and

NEEDLE LOCALIZATIONS
USING STEREOTACTIC GUIDANCE
NEEDLE LOCALIZATION
• Performing needle localization on a dedicated prone
stereotactic biopsy table, rather than on a conventional
mammography unit, has four advantages. First, the prone
table makes fainting virtually impossible, and the entire
procedure is conducted out of sight of the patient. Second,
the digital acquisition and display of images speed the
procedure considerably. These two advantages are shared
by all procedures performed on a stereotactic table,
whether with the technique described by Sanders et al.
• Most of the other major advantages
claimed by the authors relate not to their
technique in particular but rather to all
needle procedures performed on
dedicated prone stereotactic tables. The
authors would do well to scale back the
overreaching claims for their technique.
Better yet, they should take full advantage
of the high-tech capabilities of their
stereotactic table when performing needle
localizations.
• Third, the combination of the stereotactic calculations
and the computer-controlled stage permits precise
needle placement. Once the appropriate coordinates
have been locked in, the front and back needle guides
provide a foolproof guidance system for placing the
needle, permitting skewering of even tiny targets. Fourth,
stereotactic imaging provides nearly instant feedback,
permitting verification of placement of the needle tip in
three dimensions relative to the target before compression
is released. By skipping the stereotactic portion of the
needle localization procedure, Sanders et al. forego these
last two advantages, in essence dumbing down a reliable
and accurate procedure.

THE PROCEDURE
• Perform “time out”, verify name, MRN or DOB, side to be biopsied,
and films
• Position patient using closest approach to lesion (IE: CC, LM, ML, FB if
possible)
• Take stereo scout – reposition if necessary
• Mark corners of biopsy window
• Take stereo pair
• Target area to be biopsied
• Verify coordinates to make sure you are able to reach lesion (watch
stroke margin)
• Transmit coordinates to auto guide
Prep patients skin
Move probe into target position
Inject local anesthesia
Make cut with scalpel
Insert probe into target position
Take pre-fire stereo pair-verify probe position
“Fire” probe into final position for biopsy
Take post-fire stereo pair-verify probe position
Proceed with biopsy
Take specimen image to verify removal of lesion
If area of interest has been removed ready for
tissue marker placement
Depending on type of tissue marker used you
may need to pull back probe 5-10mm
Deploy tissue marker into biopsy cavity
Take post procedure image to verify tissue
marker placement
Remove probe and hold compression on biopsy
site
Steri strip opening
Take post procedure mammogram starting with
the view biopsy was preformed (IE: CC-ML, etc.)_
