Magnetic Resonance Mammography in the Diagnosis of Non-invasive Ductal Breast Cancer (Review of Literature and Оwn Experience)
Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis of breast cancer (BC). The study of semiotic and kinetic criteria of the breast dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a number of features specific for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). In our range of patients, MR-picture of the DCIS is characterized by areas of high signal intensity, with no clear-cut contour and non-arranged center (nonmass): segmental, regional, diffuse increased of the signal intensity. The combination of the features such as type III dynamic curve, high signal intensity is met in G3 DCIS and microinvasive cancer. These symptoms could be prognostic criteria of more malignant version of intraductal lesions in the breast tissue. To confirm the results, further studies are needed with a large number of patients.
