Novedades de la 5.a edición del sistema breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS®) del Colegio Americano de Radiología

The new edition has introduced changes in the radiological lexicon, report standardization, monitoring of the results and management of the patient in specific clinical situations. To simplify the report, some descriptors have been eliminated and others have been modified. Additionally, some descriptors have been unified among different imaging techniques (mammography, ultrasound and magnetic resonance). Concerning BI-RADS®3 category, radiologists can now add additional information to specify if a biopsy should be performed instead of clinical follow-up. More images and literature references have been included in the atlas.
