The shapes of the tumor in 22 cases were irregular , burrs can be seen in 9 cases, the skin in 4 cases changed, the nipples in 2 cases sunk, the tissue around the tumor was invaded in 5 cases; The CT value of the tumor rised greatly after enhancement, the ranges of value was from 18 to 83 HU. Axilla lumph nodes were detected in 16 cases, we can find the lumph node in mediastinum and lung metastasis in 3 cases; The tumor and the tissue around it can be shown well in multi-orientations through image reconstruction.
