Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of the breast.Methods In this study, 56 cases received dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of the breast, among them 37 cases with a total 45 solid masses were confirmed by pathology.The clinical value of breast MRI was analyzed retrospectively with the combination of surgery and pathology.Results Except for multiple bilateral cysts in one case among the 45 solid masses, 17 masses were benign and 28 were malignant.MRI detected multiple carcinoma in 2 cases, residual carcinoma in one case and intraductal carcinoma in 2 cases.The smallest mass detected was 4 mm in diameter.Tumor detection rate in this series was 100%, with the diagnostic sensitivity, speciality and accuracy being 92%, 92% and 90% respectively.Conclusion Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of the breast has high sensitivity and helps to make a accurate diagnosis.
