Active thyroid surveillance effective, beneficial for older patients
A 58-year-old woman was diagnosed with ER-positive (Allred score 8) ILC in her right breast. Ultrasound and MRI found prominent lymph nodes in right axillary level I area, diagnosed as metastasis on ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. F-18 FES-PET/CT showed a positive mass in right breast (white arrow; SUVmax, 5.6) and multiple F-18 FES–positive lymph nodes in right axillary level I, II, and II/III junction areas (red arrows; SUVmax, up to 12.2). In addition, a small F-18 FES-positive lymph node was observed in the right second internal mammary area (red circles; SUVmax, 1.8). However, biopsy could not be performed because it was too small and not visible on ultrasound; the clinician decided to include internal mammary lymph node in treatment field for adjuvant radiotherapy. The patient underwent lumpectomy with ALN dissection, with five metastases being identified in 13 lymph nodes dissected, and is scheduled to receive adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy.

MRI model predicts treatment response in breast cancer patients
By Amerigo Allegretto
Radiomics scoring derived from contrast-enhanced MRI can predict treatment response in women being treated for triple-negative breast cancer.
September 3, 2024
Axial dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI scans show results from two women before they underwent neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer. (A) T1-enhanced MRI scan, (B) rate constant for contrast agent plasma-to-interstitial transfer (Ktrans) map, and (C) maximum contrast agent uptake rate (Slopemax) map in a 56-year-old woman depict a tumor that manifested as a spherical 4-cm mass enhancement (arrow in A) in the right breast with axillary node involvement (arrowhead in A). The radiomics score was high, at 3.3. Histopathologic examination after chemotherapy revealed no invasive residual cancer in the breast or the lymph nodes (pathologic complete response). (D) T1-enhanced MRI scan, (E) Ktrans map, and (F) Slopemax map in a 49-year-old woman show a tumor that manifested as a spiculated 3-cm mass enhancement (arrow in D) in the left breast with thickening of the skin (arrowhead in D). The parametric maps show much greater spatial heterogeneity than in the case shown in B and C, with areas of high intensity. The radiomics score was low, at −1.6. Histopathologic examination after chemotherapy revealed a 10-mm invasive residual cancer in the breast (not pathologic complete response). Image courtesy of the RSNA.
