Abstrakt: The article discusses the utility of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) in detecting breast pathologies through intravenous contrast and dual-energy X-ray techniques. Topics include CESM's physiological insights akin to MRI, its comparable diagnostic performance and lower cost, making it preferable for patients, although it has limitations such as contrast-related risks and less detailed evaluation of enhancement kinetics.
