Abstract:
Objective To retrospectively assess diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)in preoperative assessment of local extent of breast ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS)and DCIS with small invasive foci,compared with the mammography and ultrasonography(US)imagings.Methods Results of MRI,mammography,and US imaging from 17 consecutive women with known breast DCIS and DCIS with invasive foci were analyzed,and then compared with pathologic examination.Results(1) Fourteen lesions showed enhancement on dynamic breast MRI,of which 11 lesions were no-mass-like enhancement.Six of 11 lesions appeared segmental enhancement,and 2 were regional enhancement.Ductal and multiple focal areas enhancement were 1 case respectively.Symmetric diffuse enhancement in bilateral breast was showed in 1 patient.Ductal dilation was visible in ipsilateral breast on pre-contrast MRI in 2 cases,which manifested bloody nipple discharge in clinical examination,and duct enhanced on post- contrast imaging in one of them.Two lesions appeared mass enhancement with irregular shape and homogeneous signal.Linear enhancement surrounding the oval homogeneous mass with smooth margin found in 1 case.(2)Thirteen of 17 patients underwent bilateral mammography.There were various findings in mammograms,including microcalcifications(6 cases),normal mammograms(2 cases),calcifications with other appearance(2 cases),and non-calcification abnormity(3 cases).In 8 lesions with calcifications, 5 were noted higher probability of malignancy calcifications and 3 intermediate concern calcifications. Calcifications distributed clustered(5 cases),regional(2 cases)and diffuse(1 case)shape.(3)Sixteen of 17 patients were performed breast US examination.Eleven lesions,which were correct diagnosed, appeared higher echo spots within irregular lower echo area.One lesion diagnosed benign and 4 were negative on US examination.(4)Regarded the size measured on pathologic examination as golden standard, accordance of lesion extent was 13 of 17 case in MRI,7 of 13 in mammography,and 7 of 16 in US.There were 2 lesions overestimation of extent in MRI,3 in mammography,and 2 in US.Underestimation of extent showed 1 case and 3 cases in mammography and US imaging respectively.The difference was not significant (P = 0.161).Conclusion The MR imaging features of DCIS and DCIS with small invasive loci were characteristic.The combination of MRI and mammography could improve diagnostic accuracy.
