But radiologists should bear in mind three commandments when it comes to this enduring modality.March 4, 20112011Breast CT may offer benefits over digital mammography and MRIThe improved diagnostic certainty due to CT's high sensitivity and specificity for earlier recognition and diagnosis of breast cancer lesions may have a substantial future impact on patient management, and improve outcomes.March 4, 20112011BI-RADS 3 arouses controversy, poses management challengesFor breast lesions, BI-RADS 3 allows the possibility of a "wait and see" approach instead of immediate biopsy. Given the growing number of incidental benign findings during screening and clinical breast imaging, this can be a key benefit. But the category also poses management challenges.March 3, 20112011Uncertainty remains over MRI's clinical role in breast imagingMRI can be of value for detecting cancer recurrence in the treated breast, but it continues to arouse controversy when it comes to other indications. Radiologists need to understand the indications for breast MRI and be aware of its advantages and limitations, especially in high-risk cases.March 3, 2011Previous PagePage 11 of 11Top StoriesCTCT reveals changes in lung holes in emphysema patientsCT imaging of lung holes could offer a new way to visualize and quantify the natural course of emphysema.MRIMRI-based radiomics help predict breast cancer chemotherapy responsePractice ManagementCMS' proposed 2026 MPFS rule would impact imagingMRIExplainable AI model finds breast tumors on MRIDigital X-RayOpportunistic use of chest x-rays can help screen for osteoporosis
