Ultrafast breast MRI determines malignant from benign markers
By Amerigo Allegretto
Ultrafast breast MRI can differentiate between markers associated with malignancy.
April 9, 2025
(A) Ultrafast MR image obtained 14 seconds after aortic enhancement shows 0.4-cm focus (arrow) in the left breast at 3-o’clock position, 4.5 cm from index cancer (not shown). (B) Ultrafast MR image obtained 23 seconds after aortic enhancement shows wash-in (arrow) of background parenchymal enhancement (BPE). (C) and (D) On first standard postcontrast subtraction MR images, focus (arrow, C) and BPE (arrow, D) are indistinguishable. MRI-guided biopsy of focus yielded grade 2 invasive lobular carcinoma.

AI bests rads in finding breast cancer in women with personal history
By Amerigo Allegretto
AI may have a role in finding contralateral disease in women with a personal history of breast cancer.
April 8, 2025
Images depict a 65-year-old patient with contralateral second breast cancer 6.3 years after right mastectomy. (A) Left craniocaudal and (B) mediolateral oblique mammograms assessed as benign. (C) The AI algorithm outlined a lesion with a score of 31 on the craniocaudal view. (D) A supplemental axial ultrasound scan, which was obtained on the same day as the mammogram, shows an irregular hypoechoic mass (arrows) in the left upper central breast. (E) Preoperative sagittal contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI scan shows the corresponding enhancing mass (arrow) in the left upper center. The mass was proven to be ductal carcinoma in situ.
