Abstract

Breast magnetic resonance imaging is a modality that is being progressively integrated into the breast radiologist's daily clinical practice. There is consensus on the minimal technical requirements that a breast MR exam should have in order to attain diagnostic quality. Diagnostic criteria are mainly based on the American College of Radiology's BI-RADS magnetic resonance imaging categories. Breast cancer staging is a main clinical application, but it is not universally accepted. Other applications are: response evaluation in patients treated with chemotherapy, screeening in high-risk patients, cancer of unknown origin, assessment of a possible relapse and breast implant evaluation.

Resumen

La RM es una técnica de imagen que se ha ido incorporando paulatinamente a la práctica clínica diaria del radiólogo de mama. Hay consenso en que deben cumplirse una serie de requerimientos técnicos mínimos para conseguir un estudio de calidad diagnóstica y los criterios diagnósticos se basan fundamentalmente en las categorías BI-RADS del ACR (American College of Radiology). La estadificación del cáncer de mama es una de sus principales aplicaciones clínicas, aunque no está exenta de polémica. Otras aplicaciones donde se ha validado la técnica son la evaluación de respuesta al tratamiento, el cribado en pacientes de alto riesgo, el estudio del cáncer de mama oculto, el estudio de una sospecha de recidiva y la valoración de las prótesis de mama.
