Developments in Breast Imaging: Update on New and Evolving MR Imaging and Molecular Imaging Techniques.

This article reviews new developments in breast imaging. There is growing interest in creating a shorter, less expensive MR protocol with broader applicability. There is an increasing focus on and consideration for the additive impact that functional analysis of breast pathology have on identifying and characterizing lesions. These developments apply to MR imaging and molecular imaging. This article reviews evolving breast imaging techniques with attention to strengths, weaknesses, and applications of these approaches. We aim to give the reader familiarity with the state of current developments in the field and to increase awareness of what to expect in breast imaging. PMID: 29622129 [PubMed - in process]
