Patient diagnosis on presentation prior to second opinion imaging review	Number of patients (% of total 400)
Invasive carcinoma	199 (50%)
Ductal carcinoma in situ	32 (8%)
High-risk lesion (FEA, ADH, ALH, LCIS)	4 (1%)
Suspicious finding (BI-RADS 4/5)	89 (22%)
Probably benign finding (BI-RADS 3)	36 (9%)
Negative or benign finding (BI-RADS 1 or 2)	34 (7%)
Need additional imaging evaluation (BI-RADS 0)	6 (2%)

FEA: focal epithelial atypia, ADH: atypical ductal hyperplasia, ALH: atypical lobular hyperplasia, and LCIS: lobular carcinoma in situ.
