Tumor type, breast profile determine value of mammo, US, and MR

By Shalmali Pal

The strengths and weaknesses of multiple modalities in breast imaging depend largely on the type of breast tissue involved. Ultrasound and MRI may be more sensitive to invasive cancer than mammography in dense breasts, but are of little value in fatty breasts. A combination of all three will mean a greater sensitivity to malignancy, but there are still some pitfalls, according to a report in Radiology.
