detection were 70% and 80% respectively with specificity of 80% and 100%.PPV of mpMRI was 100% compared to 87.5% for PET CT. NPV was also high for mpMRI (77.8%) compared to PET CT (66.67%) with overall accuracy of 88.26% for mpMRI compared to 76.47% for PET CONCLUSIONS: The study indicated a better diagnostic performance for mpMRI compared to PET CT for nodal staging. However, this did not achieve statistical significance. mpMRI based assessment might improve standardization and have a great potential to significantly improve staging of BC patients in the future.
