| Popis: | This study included thirty three patients with suspicious breast lesions. For every patient; Mammography, Ultrasonography and Dynamic MRI were done.Our results indicate that the sensitivity of breast imaging can be increased by complementary use of MRI. For patients in whom the status of breast lesion remains unclear, MRI, though most expensive among all other complementary diagnostic modalities, it reduces the number of unnecessary biopsies and diagnostic challenges. |
