Abstract

Breast cancer in the most common malignancy in woman. Screening is very important to identify precancerous lesions. The use of diagnostic imaging is one of the first steps in cancer diagnosis. Mammography is one of detection tool, which able to detect breast abnormality in early stage, while breast sonography is more helpful in cases with dense breast. In this study we compared the finding on mammography and ultrasonography among woman 40 to 60 years undergoing breast cancer screening. This study included 30 asymptomatic woman aged over 40 years, which have no history of reast cancer. All were assigned to undergo screening by either mammography and ultrasonography. The diagnoses were scored due to ultrasound BI-RADS, the finding from mammography and breast ultrasound were compared to analyze the difference between both examination. From the result of mammography and ultrasound were shown that at the same BIRADS scale, different images could be obtained. Further studies are needed to demonstrate the significance of the differences in examination findings on the same BIRADS scale. Keywords: Breast Cancer, Mammography, Screening, Sonography

Abstract

The use of radiation technology in Indonesia is mostly applied in the medical world and is immensely beneficial, but radiation exposure also has negative effects on health in the form of deterministic and stochastic effects. The thyroid gland is at a high risk of radiation exposure, which leads to the development of thyroid nodules. To prevent that, there must be safety measures in the use of radiation technology by implementing radiation protection, such as a thyroid shield. This study aims to examine the effect of the compliant use of a thyroid shield on the development of thyroid nodules among radiographers in Malang. This study is an observational study with the use of secondary data, where the primary data were previously gathered cross-sectionally in April 2021. The data from 40 subjects were then analyzed using a T-test with the result of the t-value = 4.299 and α = 0.000. With the result of α < 0.05 and t-value > t-distribution, this study concludes that the use of a thyroid shield has an effect on the development of thyroid nodules among radiographers in Malang, and compliant use can lower the incidence of thyroid nodules.
