The study results also suggest that axillary dissection could be omitted for patients presenting initially with N1 disease and with a negative clipped node as the SLN after NAC due to the low FNR.
Although not characteristic for idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, masses with rim enhancement or clustered-ring non-mass lesions with segmental distribution on MRI are the most common features of the disease. Ductal ectasia and periductal enhancement were commonly accompanying; this and kinetic analysis are valuable findings for distinguishing IGM from invasive cancer. IGM shows similar ADC values to invasive cancers despite being benign, DW-MRI is not helpful in the differentiation with malignant lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
