BR-4: MRI Breast is NOT Indicated  MRI Breast should not be used to determine biopsy recommendations for suspicious or indeterminate lesion(s) that can be readily biopsied, either using imaging guidance or physical exam, such as palpable masses and microcalcifications.3,6  Patients with dense breasts as determined by mammogram To date, evidence does not suggest improved outcomes for women whose only risk factor is breast density [See heading “Equivocal or Occult Findings” (Radiologist Report) in BR-5: MRI Breast Indications].13,14,15  Low risk, probably benign (BI-RADS™ 3) lesions Repeat the original type study (mammogram, US, or MRI) in 6 months  If repeat imaging remains BI-RADS™ 3, repeat original study at 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months from the date of the initial imaging. After 2 years of stability, the finding should be assessed as benign (Cat 2).16  If repeat imaging is BI-RADS™ 1 or 2, then imaging reverts to routine per individuals risk profile.

 Suspicious (BI-RADS™ 4 or 5) lesion on mammogram and/or ultrasound. A lesion categorized as have BI-RADS™ 4 or 5 should be biopsied.16

 Surveillance MRI for silent/asymptomatic rupture of silicone implants is considered investigational, as there is no evidence basis that surveillance reduces morbidity and/or mortality. However, certain payers may cover this surveillance and those coverage policies take precedence over eviCore guidelines.17,18 Certain payers do not include breast implants in their coverage policies if the breast implants were placed as part of purely cosmetic surgery. Thus, surveillance MRI in these patients would also not be included in the coverage policy. Their coverage policies will take precedence over eviCore’ guidelines.

BR-9: Suspected Breast Cancer in Males  Breast cancer in men presents as a mass, skin/nipple change, or pathologic nipple discharge.  For men <25 years of age with an indeterminate palpable mass, ultrasound is recommended as initial imaging followed by mammography if ultrasound is inconclusive or suspicious.  For men ≥25 years of age with an indeterminate palpable mass or with a concerning physical examination, mammography is recommended initially followed by ultrasound if mammography is inconclusive or suspicious.  There is limited evidence on the use of MRI in the evaluation of male breast disease.  Further diagnostic pathway for suspicious clinical or imaging findings usually requires tissue diagnosis.
