ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Breast MR imaging is a complementary screening tool for patients at high risk for breast cancer and has been used in the diagnostic setting. Normal enhancement of breast tissue on MR imaging is called breast parenchymal enhancement (BPE), which occurs after administration of an intravenous contrast agent. BPE varies widely due to menopausal status, use of exogenous hormones, and breast cancer treatment. Degree of BPE has also been shown to influence breast cancer risk and may predict treatment outcomes. The authors provide a comprehensive update on BPE with review of the recent literature.
