Conversely, among mass lesions, false-positive lesions were smaller than true-positive lesions (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION: Nonmass lesions were the major cause of false-positive breast MRI findings. BI-RADS descriptors are not sufficient for differentiating benign and malignant nonmass lesions....

PURPOSE/AIM To show spectrum of the disease manifesting false positive or false negative on breast MRI. To correlate the MRI findings with pathologic features. CONTENT ORGANIZATION Total 136 patients (mean age, 39 years; range, 28-46 years) were included in this study between January 2006 and ...

Purpose The aim of this study was to estimate the cost effectiveness of breast cancer screening with contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with and without adjunctive x-ray mammography (XM), compared with XM alone in high-risk women. Materials and Methods A model was developed to...

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 stereotactic and/or MRI guided biopsies) had their ...
Women with dense breasts often undergo conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) despite its limited specificity, which may be increased by diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and contrast. How these modalities are affected by breast density per se and their...
Breast MRI is performed to get a detailed imaging of the organ, soft tissues, bone and complete internal structure. It is used in conjunction with mammography and breast ultrasound for clearer imaging.
Additionally, a 2018 study found that false-positives from MRI had a higher probability of being due to high-risk atypical proliferative changes [25]. Breast MRI has been associated with a potential increase in the rate of overdiagnosis [26], but MRI of the contralateral breast yields a high...
