[Diagnosis of breast diseases with magnetic resonance tomography].
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the breast is currently used for evaluation of both parenchymal disease and silicone gel implants. MRI is widely recognised as the most accurate imaging method for evaluation of breast implant integrity. Knowledge of the MRI appearance of the different types of implants and the possible complications of their use is important for diagnosis in these patients. The use of contrast-enhanced MRI in breast cancer diagnosis has been investigated thoroughly during the last decade. It is a sensitive imaging method to detect breast pathology, and may have an important diagnostic impact in carefully selected patient groups. The development of new MR techniques may improve the utility of MR in breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and research.
