Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of the Breast at 3T: Pre- and Post-Contrast Evaluation for Breast Lesion Characterization

Figure 4

Breast MR spectra of a 63-years old patient with malignant breast lesion, before contrast injection (a) using a voxel of 18 19.7 18 cm3 and 8 min after (b) contrast injection using a voxel of 15 15 15 cm3 which is more adapted to the lesion’s size. After contrast injection the overall spectral resolution is better as FWHM has reduced from 25 Hz to12 Hz.
