Summary

This study tested whether a fast breast MRI can detect cancers that mammograms miss in women who had breast-conserving therapy for breast cancer at least three years earlier. About 184 women with a recent negative mammogram and no symptoms received a quick MRI. The goal was to see if the MRI could find hidden cancers, including invasive cancer and DCIS, that mammography did not detect.
