Application of Breast Scintigraphy for Patients with Suspicious (Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System IV) Breast Lesions.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The surgery for a breast imaging-reporting and data system (BIRADS) IV lesions needs imaging or pathology supporting data. The roll of breast scintigraphy for this purpose is unclear. Materials and Methods: In a prospective design, 16 patients with 25 BIRADS IV lesions who were scheduled for surgery were included. Before the surgery, breast scintigraphy was done using a nondedicated dual head gamma camera in the prone position employing a shaped foam pad providing imaging at breast pendulous position. Twenty mCi Results: Out of all lesions, 12 were malignant (invasive ductal and lobular carcinoma ductal carcinoma Conclusions: Breast scintigraphy with general purpose gamma camera employing SPECT imaging may assist the selection of BIRADS IV lesions in need for surgery. All uptake positive cases should undergo surgery and decision for uptake negative cases should be made based on other data.
