Editorial for "Correction of Artifacts Induced by B0 Inhomogeneities in Breast MRI Using Reduced-Field-of-View EchoPlanar Imaging and Enhanced Reverse Polarity Gradient Method" In recent years, diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly recognized as a key tool in breast imaging...

all these markers are surrogates for underlying metabolic activity. As high and ultra-high field MRI have become more available, there has been a renewed interest towards X-nuclei (i.e. non hydrogen) MRI applications in breast cancer5,6,7,8. Unlike standard proton (1H) MRI, X-nuclei MRI ...
since the majority of patients diagnosed using MRI and stereotactic-guided biopsies had malignancies that were sonographically occult. US exams that received a BI-RADS score of 0, 3, and 6, as well as patients who had breast pathology obtained using multi-modal image guidance (US plus stereotac...
The low sensitivity of mammography has generated interest in other imaging modalities, such as ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), tomosynthesis and molecular targeted imaging for ILC. The radiographic features of ILC as well as the strengths and limitations of each modality are ...
Results: (1) Out of 60 patients, 19 achieved complete pathological response (PCR) with no residual invasive disease or DCIS. MRI correctly predicted 16 /19. 5/60 had PCR with residual DCIS, which in our unit is considered to be PCR. Of these 5, MRI predicted complete response in 2 and...
In this work, we present the first attempt to register breast MRI and X-ray mammographic images using intensity gradients as the similarity measure. Specifically, a patient-specific biomechanical model of the breast, extracted from the MRI image, is used to mimic the mammographic acquisition. The...
MRIRFcoilsThe design and construction of an RF coil system for use in MR breast imaging is described. The two-ring, tuned Helmholtz coil, with its axis perpendicular to the chest, surrounds a single pendant breast and is coupled both internally and to the MRI transmitter/receiver by mutual ...
(due to the strength of the SPIO magnetic moment, 22milliontimes stronger than the nuclear magnetization detected in high-field MRI), and direct and quantitative tracer detection (in contrast to indirect, qualitative detection as in contrast-enhanced MRI)56. As quasistatic magnetic fields are not...
[MRI]) are guided by accurate estimation of an individual woman’s risk of breast cancer [15,19,20,21]. Logically, risk-stratified screening would target intervention at those that stand to gain the most and reduce or stop screening in those that stand to gain little benefit, potentially ...
