ABSTRACT
It has been shown that MR imaging of breast is superior to conventional mammography and ultrasonography on early diagnosis and cancer staging on breast cancer due to MRI’s high soft-tissue contrast and no radiation. The concept of multidisciplinary treatment of breast cancer has been increasingly accepted in clinical practice of breast cancer care. Investigation of breast MRI on cancer staging, selecting conservative therapy, detecting the primary malignant of patients presenting as axillary metastases, evaluating residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC), predicting response in the early phase of treatment as well as monitoring recurrence during follow-up has been carried out along with its board clinical application. The advantages of breast MRI in mapping the disease accurately provide measures to select appropriate use of variable treatments.
