title: [MR-mammography: current status and perspectives].
abstract: Dynamic MR imaging of the breast is viewed as an examination technique which is supplementary to mammography and sonography and which can provide important additional diagnostic information. Proven indications for MR mammography include examinations of patients who have undergone lumpectomy and patients with prosthetic breast implants. The method also appears to be useful to differentiate between postoperative scarring and carcinoma as well as to exclude a multicentric breast carcinoma prior to lumpectomy. The sensitivity of MR mammography, however, is limited in cases of DCIS. Hypervascular benign lesions can be difficult to distinguish from malignant lesions.
