Breast MRI Series

The Breast MRI Lecture series reviews breast MRI theory and technique and teaches the MRI appearances of malignant and benign lesions, common, and rare. Breast MRI is reported as valuable in detecting cancer in women who have a personal history of breast cancer, those patients with greater than 25% lifetime risk of breast cancer, and those with dense breasts – a condition associated with breast cancer risk but which decreases the sensitivity of the gold standard screening exam, mammography. MRI helps delineate the extent of disease in patients diagnosed with breast cancer.
