Role of diffusion weighted imaging and dynamic contrast enhanced MR mammography to detect recurrence in breast cancer patients after surgery

However, DWI can provide an alternative diagnostic tool to contrast administration “if interpreted in association with conventional MR sequences” thus can be used when contrast media is contraindicated.
