CEM comparable to MRI in asymptomatic women
By Amerigo Allegretto
Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is on par with MRI in breast cancer screening for asymptomatic women, according to recent research.
November 15, 2023
A 47-year-old female participant with a suspicious mass noted at screening tomosynthesis and subsequent diagnostic ultrasound was recruited for contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and MRI. (A) No abnormality was noted on the conventional 2D mammogram showing dense breast tissue. A mass (arrows) was clearly observed on (B) the recombined CEM image and (C) the MRI scan. Both images show marked background parenchymal enhancement. Biopsy confirmed a 1.1-cm grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma (estrogen receptor- and progesterone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative). Image courtesy of Radiology.
