OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to discuss the essential steps involved in performing, interpreting, managing, and reporting findings on contrast-enhanced mammography for successful implementation into clinical practice.AJR: American Journal of Roentgenology : Including Diagnostic Radiology, ...
This article reviews research done by the author and collaborators in the general area of subtraction techniques applied to radiological images, in particular in contrast-enhanced digital mammography (CEDM). Main achievements have been the development and phantom validation of a general formalism to sub...
Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is an imaging technique that uses iodinated contrast medium to improve visualization of breast lesions and assessment of tumor neovascularity. Through modifications in x-ray energy, high- and low-energy images of the breast are combined to highlight areas of contr...
GE HealthCare Korea held a press conference to commemorate the approval of the contrast agent Omnipaque (ingredient: iohexol) for use in contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM). Professor Shin Hee-jung at Asan Medical Center explains how Omnipaque can potentially change early breast cancer diagnosis. (C...
OBJECTIVE: Contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) is a reliable problem solving tool in the work-up of women recalled from breast cancer screening. We evaluated additional findings caused by CESM alone and outweighed them against the disadvantages of this technique. METHODS: From December 2012...
Contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) is a promising problem-solving tool in women referred from a breast cancer screening program. We aimed to study the validity of preliminary results of CESM using a larger panel of radiologists with different levels of CESM experience. All women referred...
To prospectively evaluate accuracy of gadobenate dimeglumine-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) mammography for depiction of synchronous contralateral breast cancer in patients with newly diagnosed unilateral breast cancer or high-risk lesions, with histologic analysis or follow-up as reference. The study ha...
According to ARRS' American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) showed concordance with MRI in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer and breast augmentation.
This dissertation studies a new method to detect breast cancer called Contrast Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM). Abnormal breast tissue can be detected with CESM by administering intravenous iodinated contrast. This dissertation explains the way in which CESM works. Furthermore, the use of CESM in...
PURPOSE evaluate the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced spectral digital mammography versus dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in the detection and staging of breast cancer. METHOD AND MATERIALS In this institutional ethics approved prospective study, we compared the performance of ...
