Overview

MRI may be performed to detect the breast cancer associated with Paget's disease of the breast.

MRI

  • MRI may be performed to detect the breast cancer associated with Paget's disease of the breast.
  • MRI is highly sensitive in the detection of clinically occult cancer with no mammographic and ultrasonographic signs of malignancy.
  • MRI has a sensitivity of 95% compared to 70% of mammography in the detection of breast lesions.[1]
  • MRI is useful not only to differentiate the normal nipple from the abnormal one but also to evaluate the extension of the tumor.
  • It may show abnormal nipple enhancement, thickening of the nipple–areola complex.
  • Even when clinically unsuspected it can show associated enhancment for DCIS or invasive tumor, or a combination of both[2][3][4][4].
