methods in this research, we utilized the chaos theory and fractal analysis in the interpretation of breast tumors on dce-mri. this cross-sectional study was done at pardisnoor imaging center during years 2015 and 2016 in iran. our sample size was 18 mass lesions, which were randomly selected among patients with birad 3 and birad 4 classification by the expert radiologist. the analysis was perf...

BACKGROUND The goal of breast cancer screening is to reduce breast cancer mortality. Mammography is the standard screening method for detecting breast cancer early. Breast MRI is recommended to be used in conjunction with mammography for screening subsets of women at high risk for breast cancer. We offer the first study to provide national estimates of breast MRI use among women in the United S...

background: the monoclonal antibody, c595, against breast cancer cell line was conjugated with cyclic anhydride gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid (gd-cdtpaa) to produce gd-dtpa-c595 and used as specific breast cancer cell line (mcf-7) contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (mri).  methods: after incubation of breast cancer cell line (mcf-7), with different contrast agents (g...

IMPORTANCE Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used for breast cancer screening, diagnostic evaluation, and surveillance. However, we lack data on national patterns of breast MRI use in community practice. OBJECTIVE To describe patterns of breast MRI use in US community practice during the period 2005 through 2009. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Observational cohort s...

Introduction Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is finding wider application in the clinical management of breast cancer and both the technology and performance standards for breast MRI continue to improve. In 2003, the American College of Radiology (ACR) added MRI and ultrasound to its publication of the ACR BIRADS Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System [1], providing guidelines for per...

Note: All policy statements below refer to performing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the breast with contrast and a breast coil. MRI of the breast without a breast coil, regardless of the clinical indication, is considered investigational. See additional comments in Policy Guidelines about the breast imaging team and the need for breast MRI centers to perform MRI-guided biopsy and localiza...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the added diagnostic value of 3.0 Tesla breast MRI over conventional breast imaging in the diagnosis of in situ and invasive breast cancer and to explore the role of routine versus expert reading. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated MRI scans of patients with nonpalpable BI-RADS 3-5 lesions who underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced 3.0 Tesla breast MRI. Initially, MRI sc...

the sensitivity and specificity of mammography are limited in highly fibroglandular breasts (acr density c and d). digital mammography provides increased sensitivity in young women and those with moderately dense breasts, and digital three-dimensional mammography (tomosynthesis) promises further improvement. for women with the densest breasts, however, radiography is unlikely to be the optimum ...

Purpose: Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI has a promising role in breast cancer detection and lesion characterisation. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) acts as an adjunct the differentiation between benign malignant lesions. The purpose of study was to evaluate efficacy DCE-MRI DWI differentiating Methods: In prospective conducted March 2019 February 2020, 60 patients with lesions underwent ...
