Abstrakt: Background: The Ki-67 is a beneficial marker of tumor aggressiveness. It is proliferation index that has been used to distinguish luminal B from luminal A breast cancers. By fast progress in quantitative radiology modalities, tumor biology and genetics can be assessed in a more accurate, predictive, and cost-effective method. The aim of this study was to assess the role of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging and diffusion tensor imaging in prediction of Ki-67 status in patients with invasive breast carcinoma estimate cut off values between breast cancer with high Ki-67 status and those with low Ki-67 status. Results: Cut off ADC (apparent diffusion co-efficient) value of 0.657 mm2/s had 96.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 93.8% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off maximum enhancement value of 1715 had 96.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 93.8% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off washout rate of 0.73 I/S had 60.7% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 62.5% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off time to peak value of 304 had 71.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 71.9% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Conclusions: ADC, time to peak and maximum enhancement values had high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in differentiating breast cancer with high Ki-67 status from those with low Ki-67 status.
