Magnetic Resonance Imaging Enhancement Features Before and After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Breast Cancer

Abstract

No baseline MRI feature described using the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System MRI lexicon was useful for early prediction of the response to NAC.

Evaluation of the treatment response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer using combined magnetic resonance vascular maps and apparent diffusion coefficient

“…However, inconsistent results have been reported in different studies due to measurement errors of MRI, especially in the positive hormone receptor subtype. The value of breast MRI for monitoring an early response to treatment has not yet been well established . The novelty of our study was to combine two important techniques, ADC and VM, in assessing the early treatment response of LABC.…”
