  2. 1. Magnetic resonance imaging in breast diagnosis

    Author : Maria Kristoffersen Wiberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : MRI; breast; triple diagnosis; FNAB; size; scintimammography.;

    Abstract : MRI of the breast has, since the introduction of gadolinium contrast agents, been increasingly used in breast investigations. MRI has been found to have a high sensitivity but a low specificity in cancer detection. The aim of this thesis was to study and establish the role of MRI in the clinical diagnosis of breast lesions.
