“…The twenty false positive cases among lesions with an ADC value of less than 1.44 × 10 -3 mm 2 /s occurred in our series could be explained by the presence of benign nodules with a predominant fibrous component or other benign conditions characterized by inflammatory changes, such as complicated cysts showing low ADC values, probably due to high cellularity, fibrosis, leukocytes, chronic inflammatory elements, as already reported in other series [17,20,25]. On the other side, the two false negative cases among lesions with ADC values of more than 1.44 × 10 -3 mm 2 /s occurred in our series are probably due to the presence of low cellularity breast tumors, such as mucinous forms [22,30].…”
