Overview
MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of fibroadenoma.
MRI
- MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of fibroadenoma.
- It has limited ability to differentiate benign lesions from malignant ones on the basis of signal intensity and enhancement alone.[1]
- MRI image characteristics observed among fibroadenoma patients include:[1]
- A lobular, oval or round lesion
- Internal septations which can correlate with collagenous bands on histopathologic analysis.
