MRI surveillance for women with dense breasts and a previous breast cancer and/or high risk lesion.

CONCLUSIONS: The CDR and FP rate of surveillance MRI in this study were comparable to those reported for women with BRCA mutations. The addition of annual MRI to mammography should be considered for surveillance of women with a combination of these risk factors, particularly if they have a family history of BC and are not on anti-estrogen therapy.
