    Author: O'Boyle MK, Wechsler RJ, Conant EF, Lev-Toaff AS, Sagerman J.

    Abstract:
    The mammographic, sonographic, and MR appearances of both normal and abnormal breast implants have been described. Breast implants are occasionally seen on chest CT scans obtained for other reasons; however, we know of no published reports on the CT findings in a series of patients with breast implants. We present a retrospective review of CT findings in 18 patients with 27 breast implants that illustrates the spectrum of findings that can be seen in asymptomatic patients.
