Contrast Enhanced Mammography Descriptors using Breast Imaging and Reporting and Data System

Abstract: Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is an emerging breast imaging technique with a potential to develop into a one-stop imaging solution for several conditions which require imaging, especially its role in cancer detection and local staging when combined with ultrasound. In 2022, CEM lexicon was published as a supplement to the American College of Radiology Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR BIRADS) fifth edition. This pictorial review illustrates the findings that are seen on CEM using ACR BIRADS CEM lexicon to make the reader familiar with the terminologies. In our experience, interpretation and description of findings in CEM using ACR-BIRADS CEM lexicon had a short learning curve and it was easy to implement in practice as most of the terminologies were already in use for interpreting magnetic resonance imaging.
