BIRADS 3 MRI lesions: Was the initial score appropriate and what is the value of the blooming sign as an additional parameter to better characterize these lesions?
This study showed the suggestive part of classified BIRADS 3 lesions. The blooming sign seems to be a good additional parameter to increase MRI specificity when associated to BIRADS criteria.
We found recipient BMI, gender, race, and donor age to be influential predictors of outcome, while wait time and human leukocyte antigen matching were much less associated with outcome. BBN enabled us to examine variables from a large database to develop a robust predictive model.
