BI-RADS VI
BI-RADS VI is a new addition to the ACR (American College of Radiology) BI-RAD system. The prior classification system was a 5-tier system. The current system is a 6-tier system.
According to the current BI-RADS tier, patients with biopsy proven cancer prior to definitive therapy would be category 6.
