Abstract P3-01-04: Potential clinical application of mammography conducted immediately after contrast enhanced CT as contrast enhanced subtraction mammography

Conclusion】To the best of our knowledge, no reports of CESM in which MMG is performed immediately after contrast-enhanced CT have been published to date, and thus this is the world's first attempt of such method performed at our hospital. CESM ensures diagnosability without being invasive or placing financial burden on the patient. It was suggested that CESM can be clinically useful particularly for those who cannot undergo contrast-enhanced MRI due to hardware problems, financial difficulties, or metal embedded within the body.Citation Format: Ohtani S, Yoshimura Y, Kin T, Fujihara M, Kajiwara Y, Ito M, Okada N, Urashima M.
