“…This results in a rapid uptake of gadolinium-based contrast, which can accumulate in the BC stroma ( 49 ). This high sensitivity also extends to the increased detection of multifocal, multi-centric and contralateral disease ( 50 ). MRI detects additional tumor foci and contralateral breast disease in between 16% and 58% of patients with ILC, not detected on initial mammogram ( 2 ).…”

“…Overall, MRI is particularly advantageous over standard imaging methods due to its increased sensitivity in detecting ILC tumors and improving the detection of ipsilateral and contralateral tumors ( Figure 5 ). In conclusion, despite its limitations, MRI provides additional diagnostic information that may be missed during standard imaging and should be used in combination with US and mammography in accurately assessing patients with ILC ( 37 , 50 ).…”

“…Despite its high level of sensitivity in the early detection of BC, a considerable limitation of MRI is the lack of specificity ( 53 ). A low specificity can result in the over-treatment of patients resulting in extensive surgery with no added clinical benefit ( 50 ). Despite this, the presumed improvement of surgical outcomes and overall DFS as a result of MRI has been controversial.…”

Lobular Breast Cancer: A Review

Invasive lobular carcinoma accounts for 5%–15% of all invasive breast cancers, with a marked increase in incidence rates over the past two decades. Distinctive biological hallmarks of invasive lobular carcinoma include the loss of cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin leading to cells with a discohesive morphology, proliferating into single-file strands and estrogen receptor positivity. These key molecular features can make diagnosis difficult, as invasive lobular carcinoma is challenging to detect both physically and with current standard imaging. Treatment of invasive lobular carcinoma strongly favors endocrine therapy due to low chemosensitivity and lower rates of pathological response as a result. This review will summarize the distinct biological and molecular features of invasive lobular carcinoma, focusing on the diagnostic challenges faced and the subsequent surgical and medical management strategies. Prospective therapeutic options will also be explored, highlighting how furthering our understanding of the unique biology of lobular breast carcinoma is essential in guiding and informing the treatment of patients in the future.

Background: Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women throughout the world. A range of noninvasive techniques have been employed for early prevention. In health-care practice, however, quality and sensitivity remained critical. Objective: The aim of this study is to see how well Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRIs) and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) techniques can detect breast cancer and distinguish between malignant and benign lesions. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at the Taif Hospitals, Saudi Arabia. The Picture Archiving and Communication System was used to acquire medical records and data from 50 individuals with probable breast cancer, and breast MRI pictures were analyzed. Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) radiologist reports and DCE-MRI kinetic curves were evaluated. Excel was also used to test the sensitivity and specificity of breast MRI. Results: According to the BI-RADS results, biopsies, and breast MRI data, 52 percent of 50 patients were categorized as benign, 24 percent as malignant, and 24 percent had no abnormalities. Biopsy revealed that 61.5 percent of the malignant lesions were benign, whereas 38.5 percent were appropriately identified as cancerous. The majority of malignant tumors were discovered in patients over the age of 50. The washout curve correctly identified 60% of the malignant lesions and 40% of the benign lesions. Our data demonstrated the usefulness of MRI in detecting breast cancers by analyzing BI-RADS and utilizing DCE-MRI. False-positive, on the other hand, can lead to unnecessary biopsies. Conclusion: Breast cancer is more common among women of their fifties and beyond. Biopsies, breast MRIs, and kinetic curve analysis can all be utilized to differentiate between benign and malignant breast masses with high sensitivity and specificity.
