摘要

For many solid carcinomas, high-resolution cross-sectional imaging has changed cancer staging, the evaluation of therapeutic response, the detection of recurrence, and even how therapy is selected and performed. Such imaging has not yet had similar effects on breast cancer. Evaluations of therapeutic response in breast carcinomas have been impeded by the current limited methods of evaluating breast tumor size and extent: clinical palpation, ultrasonography, and mammography. The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the breast in the evaluation of breast tumors brings the advantages of high-resolution cross-sectional imaging to breast cancer staging and treatment evaluation and is likely to greatly enhance research efforts in this complex disease. MRI of the breast has evolved to be the most accurate noninvasive technique for local staging of breast cancer. MRI is most accurate in measuring tumor size and detecting multicentric disease. These staging characteristics affect the selection of therapy and initial determination of prognosis; therefore, MRI of the breast can change the assessment of fundamental parameters on which treatment is selected. Because clinical trials of new cancer treatments are predicated on proper and accurate characterization of the tumor, MRI also should affect how clinical trials are performed and evaluated.
