DCIS: How MRI Helps

DCIS remains a management problem in breast disease. Although management recommendations have not stabilized, MRI can now improve diagnosis and predictive value.  Dr. Harms, a pioneer in the development of MRI of the Breast, offers seasoned judgment of the spotty initial MRI data on DCIS. He then reviews specific current improvements in technology to improve the sensitivity with improved resolution and interpretive criteria, with illustrative examples showing recent technical contributions to diagnosis, with insight into the wide spectrum and emerging information on the predictive value of the diagnosis.
