[Nuclear spin tomography in breast diagnosis].
The authors report about their preliminary experience with MRI in the diagnosis of breast disease. 50 breast masses in 41 consecutive patients have been evaluated by MRI and mammography, some of which have been evaluated by ultrasound, as well. All masses have consequently been biopsied. They include 32 carcinomas, 1 secondary malignant lymphoma, 4 fibroadenomas, 2 papillomas, 3 cysts, 1 hamartoma and 5 dysplastic nodules. Advantages and disadvantages of MRI of the breast are discussed. Possible future indications are suggested for selected cases.
