  • Title: Breast MR imaging: current indications and advanced imaging techniques.
    Author: Weinstein S, Rosen M.
    Journal: Radiol Clin North Am; 2010 Sep; 48(5):1013-42. PubMed ID: 20868898.
    Abstract:
    Breast cancer is the most common solid tumor diagnosed in women. In the past decades, great strides have been made in breast cancer screening. While multiple screening trials have shown the benefits of screening mammography, there are limitations to x-ray mammography. Given these inherent limitations, efforts have been made to develop adjunctive imaging techniques, including screening ultrasonography, gamma-specific breast imaging, breast tomosynthesis, dedicated breast computed tomography, and breast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. This article addresses the current indications and advanced imaging applications of breast MR imaging.
