Our next patient is a 75-year-old
0:03
woman for high-risk screening.
0:05
She had a history of right breast
0:06
cancer about 15 years ago and has a
0:09
strong family history of breast cancer.
0:12
So here's her MIP image.
0:14
Her right breast is smaller than the left
0:19
because she's had a lumpectomy on this side.
0:22
She has some blood vessels that you can see,
0:24
and a few scattered foci of enhancement.
0:26
That's all normal.
0:28
We'll pull up her T1-weighted non-cancerous,
0:31
fat-saturated image and her
0:35
first post-contrast image.
0:39
So you can see here on the right side,
0:43
right upper outer breast, there's a
0:44
linear scar and a lumpectomy site.
0:47
So that was her lumpectomy.
0:50
There's some surgical clips here
0:53
with susceptibility artifact.
0:56
And you can see that there's relatively
1:01
little enhancement at the lumpectomy site.
1:06
And then she also had the interesting
1:08
finding of a mass in the right lateral
1:13
breast, which does not enhance with contrast.
1:16
So a non-enhancing mass
1:19
that's considered benign.
1:22
And then there's not much
1:24
else going on in her breast.
1:27
We would call her breast
1:28
tissue almost entirely fatty.
1:31
There's very little tissue and then a minimal
1:33
to mild background parenchymal enhancement.
1:37
And then the other series showed similar
1:40
findings, but basically benign findings,
1:43
and we will give her a BI-RADS 2.
