Objective:To explore the mammographic findings of women of appropriate age undergoing health check-ups in Hefei area,providing insights for classification and treatment.Methods:A total of 743 women aged 22 to 87 years with breast ultrasound indicating BI-RADS category 3 were selected for analysis,focusing on the differences in breast tissue types and lesion classifications between those under 52 years(non-elderly group)and those over 52 years(elderly group).Results:There was a statistically significant difference in glandular types between the non-elderly and elderly groups(P＜0.05).In the non-elderly group,mammography revealed masses in 76 cases(17.51%)and calcifications in 197 cases(45.39%).In contrast,the elderly group showed masses in 66 cases(21.36%)and calcifications in 179 cases(58.50%).The morphology and margins of masses as well as distribution patterns of calcifications did not show statistically significant differences;however,there was a significant difference regarding calcification morphology(P＜0.05),with a higher probability of moderate to high-grade malignant calcifications observed among the elderly group.The incidence rates of structural distortion did not differ significantly between both groups;however,asymmetry occurrence rates exhibited statistical significance(P＜0.05).No statistically significant differences were found concerning breast lesion classifications between both groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Due to variations in breast tissue types,notable differences exist between elderly women and non-elderly women regarding mammographic findings related to calcification morphology and glandular asymmetry;thus,observation priorities should be tailored according to different ages and breast tissue characteristics.
