Abstract:
Contrast-enhanced mammography is an increasingly used breast imaging technique that offers significant advantages in terms of accessibility, patient tolerance, and cost. Its diagnostic performance has been shown to be comparable to that of breast magnetic resonance imaging, particularly for the detection and characterization of enhancing lesions. Given its growing clinical relevance, this article aims to illustrate the main enhancement patterns encountered in contrast-enhanced mammography and to compare them with their corresponding appearances on breast MRI.
