Imaging Surveillance for Survivors of Breast Cancer: Correlation between Cancer Characteristics and Method of Detection.

CONCLUSION: Most recurrent breast cancers showed the same cancer subtype as the primary tumor, and recurrent breast cancer subtypes correlated with the detection modality. Imaging surveillance of survivors of breast cancer might be more beneficial in cases of HR+HER2- type breast cancer or HER2+ type breast cancer than in cases of triple-negative type breast cancer.
