Comparison of false positive rates for screening breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in high risk women performed on stacked versus alternating schedules

Abstract: PurposeBreast MRI added to mammography increases screening sensitivity for high-risk women but false-positive (FP) rates are higher and the optimal screening schedule for coordination with mammography is unclear. We compare rates of FP MRI when studies were performed on two different schedules.Patients and methodsHigh-risk women at the University of Vermont who had at least 1 MRI and 1 mammogram performed within one year between 2004–2012 were eligible for inclusion in this study. Screening was considered stac… Show more

“…Compared to gold standard and pH-sensitive gadolinium T 1 MRI contrast agents, MnO NPs have superior MRI properties. Clinically used gadolinium chelates are not pH-sensitive, and are always in an "ON" state, which highlights any well vascularized structure and can lead to false positive diagnoses in which a benign tumor can be mistaken for a malignant tumor [11][12][13]. In addition, many standard gadolinium agents such as MultiHance have low relaxivities of~4 mM -1 s -1 at 1.5T-4.7T [14]; Mn 2+ has a higher relaxivity of~7-8 mM -1 s -1 at the same field strengths [5,15,16].…”

“…Numerous blood biomarkers including CA 15.3, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA125 and imaging modalities like ultrasound, mammography, MRI, PET, and CT are routinely used to detect primary breast tumor disease and recurrence and to assess therapeutic response [44,45]. However, they are limited in their ability to differentially diagnose and risk-stratify the disease, with high rates of false positive diagnoses [46], underscoring the need for specific markers to accurately detect highly invasive and metastatic breast tumors, and to distinguish them from low-risk indolent ones. Moreover, breast tumors frequently exhibit intrinsic or acquired resistance to chemotherapy and targeted drugs [39].…”
