CONCLUSIONS Histogram analysis of ADC may serve as a useful biomarker for ESCC, reflecting pathological features and prognosis.BACKGROUND The incidence of breast biopsy following treatment for breast cancer is not well-characterized. We sought to determine the frequency and outcomes of breast biopsy and the need for subsequent surgery in patients treated with breast-conserving surgery (BCS). METHODS Using a prospective database, we identified patients in Alberta, Canada, treated with BCS for screen-detected breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) from 2010 to 2014. Post-treatment breast procedures were identified from physician claims data. Multivariable analysis was performed to identify factors associated with biopsy. RESULTS We included 2065 patients with a median of 6.4 years of follow-up; most had DCIS (n = 426, 20.6%) or stage I disease (n = 1385, 67.1%). Post-treatment core biopsy was performed in 389 (18.8%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 17.2-20.6%) patients, and excisional biopsy was performed in 19 (0.9%, 95% CI 0.6-1.4%) patients. The per-patient benign-to-malignant biopsy ratio was 3.2 to 1, and the overall malignancy rate was 6.1% (95% CI 5.1-7.2%). Younger age, proximity to a cancer center, positive margins, and the use of magnetic resonance imaging were associated with biopsy (p  less then  0.05). Additional surgery was performed in 150 (7.3%, 95% CI 6.2-8.5%) patients; 93 (4.5%, 95% CI 3.6-5.4%) patients underwent mastectomy. Surgery was performed for local recurrence/ipsilateral cancer in 62 (3.0%) patients, contralateral breast cancer in 60 (2.9%) patients, bilateral breast cancer in 3 (0.1%) patients, and benign ind
