Abstract:
The capability of three-time-point, gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging to depict vascular permeability and extracellular volume fraction of breast fibroadenoma was evaluated with histopathologic correlation. This method demonstrated an even distribution of high extracellular volume fraction and low to moderate microvascular permeability in these common breast lesions, providing a nonsurgical means of improving the accuracy of diagnosis of fibroadenoma.
