Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Breast Imaging

Background:

  • Mammographic changes can arise from various breast conditions and treatments.
  • Distinguishing treatment-induced changes from malignancy is crucial for accurate diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the spectrum of mammographic changes caused by systemic and local therapies.
  • To emphasize the importance of understanding the timing and natural history of these changes for improved interpretation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on therapeutic interventions and their mammographic effects.
  • Analysis of characteristic and overlapping imaging features.

Main Results:

  • Therapies can induce specific patterns (e.g., scarring post-reduction mammoplasty) and nonspecific changes.

  • Many treatment-induced changes share features with malignant lesions, posing diagnostic challenges.

    • Conclusions:

    • Familiarity with the temporal evolution and imaging characteristics of therapy-related mammographic findings is essential.
    • This knowledge aids radiologists in differentiating benign post-treatment alterations from true malignancies, optimizing patient management.
