The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System®(BI-RADS®) initiative, instituted by the
ACR, was begun in the late 1980s to address a lack of standardization and uniformity in …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a well-established method in breast imaging, with
manifold clinical applications, including the non-invasive differentiation between benign and …

Purpose To evaluate the incremental value of diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging and
apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) mapping in relation to conventional breast magnetic …

Objectives To evaluate the effect of the choice of b values and prior use of contrast medium
on apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) of breast lesions derived from diffusion-weighted …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is particularly attractive for clinical application in
perfusion imaging thanks to the absence of ionizing radiation and limited volumes of …

OBJECTIVE. Molecular profiling studies have defined the increasing importance of gene
expression phenotyping in breast cancer. However, the relationship between global …

OBJECTIVE. Our purpose was to study the utility of diffusion-weighted MRI in differentiating
benign from malignant breast lesions by assessing the best b values. SUBJECTS AND …

Purpose The purpose of this pilot study is to determine (1) if early changes in both
semiquantitative and quantitative DCE‐MRI parameters, observed after the first cycle of …

Simple Summary Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed with surgery is the standard
strategy in the treatment of locally advanced breast cancer, but the individual efficacy varies …

OBJECTIVE. The type of contrast enhancement kinetic curve (ie, persistently enhancing,
plateau, or washout) seen on dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) of the breast is …
