Abstract
BI-RADS, introduced by the ACR in 1993, has standardized the language and reporting structure used for breast cancer screening examinations, categorization of risk on the basis of imaging findings, and recommendations for follow-up imaging and management of potential breast tumors [1]. Since that time, the widespread adoption of BI-RADS has likely contributed to reduced variation in the quality of breast imaging care. However, recent work has shown that patients in traditionally disadvantaged demographic groups have reduced rates of follow-up for abnormal screening findings, which is a likely mechanism underlying at least some of the persistent disparities in breast cancer outcomes [2].
