Abstract

Background: Breast cancer is the second important cause of cancer-related adults that mostly affects female. There are different diagnostic methods for detecting breast lesions, the specificity and sensitivity of which are very important in identifying multifocal lesions, since very few studies have been done on this issue so far, this study was done with the aims to Comparison identifying imaging diagnosis methods in multifocal and multicentric breast cancer patients. Materials and Methods: The current systematic review was done based on the Strengthening the Reporting of Observationally Studies in Epidemiology and Meta-Analyses of Observational Studies in Epidemiology. The primary keywords were published in reliable databases such as Pubmed , Elsevier, SID, Wiley in English were searched until the end of 2022. Two authors independently examined the articles in terms of data extraction, inclusion criteria, and quality assessment of the articles. Results: The age range from 496 samples was 57.3. Using the results of 5 published articles for MG and CESM, the overall specificity and sensitivity were 89% and 85% , respectively and for MRI, the overall specificity and sensitivity were 81% and 85% , respectively. Conclusion: The MRI method is the most sensitive tool for diagnosing BC in patients, but if a combination of new methods is used together, we will definitely achieve better results.
