Usefulness of abbreviated breast MRI screening for women with a history of breast cancer surgery
Breast Cancer Research and Treatment Oct 18, 2017
Choi BH, et al. - This work was designed to assess the utility of abbreviated breast MRI (AB-MRI), including fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging, pre- and postcontrast image acquisition, and subtracted maximum-intensity projection imaging, for the screening of women with a history of breast cancer surgery. Findings revealed an acceptable diagnostic performance of screening AB-MRI for women with a history of breast cancer surgery. It proved advantageous regarding short examination and interpretation times and low costs. Thus, authors suggest considering it as main screening modality that might replace conventional imaging in breast cancer survivors.
