BI-RADS Atlas

The BI-RADS Atlas is a standardized system used by radiologists to evaluate and communicate findings from breast imaging tests like mammograms. It helps categorize breast tissue findings into clear, consistent groups ranking from benign (not cancer) to highly suspicious for cancer. This classification guides doctors on the best next steps, such as additional tests or biopsy, and ensures consistent, reliable communication among healthcare providers. Overall, BI-RADS helps improve breast cancer detection and patient care by providing a uniform framework for interpreting and reporting imaging results.
