“…1) would facilitate the planning of appropriate surgery and would reduce the necessity for a further procedure after attempted local excision. Although it is possible to localize lesions with MRI, 23 there was no instance where this was required: either the women with multifocal disease diagnosed on DCE-MRI had requested a mastectomy, or the multiple lesions were all contained within the same quadrant and were therefore amenable to local surgery in the form of a quadrantectomy or wide local excision. The lesions identified on the DCE-MRIs classified as false positive for multifocal disease were all contained within the same quadrant, and therefore no patient underwent unnecessary mastectomy on the basis of the DCE-MRI.…”

“…This is possible using the identical settings on the AD, since needle holder and substitute needle imitate the vacuum biopsy gun. Vacuum biopsy is then performed under local anaesthesia until at least three sweeps around the clock (corresponding to 18 3-mm cores) have been acquired [8]. 6.…”

“…The MR-guided percutaneous biopsy is highly desirable. Some devices have thus far been tested for these procedures or for fine-needle aspiration [5,6,7,8]; however, to date, only this prototype allows performance of percutaneous vacuum biopsy.…”

European quadricentric evaluation of a breast MR biopsy and localization device: technical improvements based on phase-I evaluation

et al. 2002

Our purpose was to report about technical success, problems and solutions, as experienced in a first multicentre study on MR-guided localisation or vacuum biopsy of breast lesions. The study was carried out at four European sites using a dedicated prototype breast biopsy device. Experiences with 49 scheduled localisation procedures and 188 vacuum biopsies are reported. Apart from 35 dropped indications, one localisation procedure and 9 vacuum biopsies were not possible (3 times space problems due to obesity, 2 times too strong compression, 3 times impaired access from medially, 2 times impaired access due to a metal bar). Problems due to too strong compression were recognised by repeat MR without compression. During the procedure problems leading to an uncertain result occurred in eight vacuum biopsies, two related to the procedure: one limited access, and one strong post-biopsy enhancement. Improvements after phase-I study concerned removal of the metal bar, development of an improved medial access, of a profile imitating the biopsy gun, optimisation of compression plates and improved software support. The partners agreed that the improvements answered all important technical problems.

“…In these studies, MRI-guided lesion marking proved to be a valid and precise method [36]. Larger studies involving n> 50 lesions have reported technical success rates of 97 -98 % [30,37,38]. However, MRI-guided lesion marking has since been replaced by MRI-VAB and is only warranted in isolated cases (see above).…”

Breast MR imaging has become established as?the most sensitive imaging method for diagnosing breast cancer. As a result of the increasing examination volume and improved image quality, the number of breast lesions detected only on MRI and requiring further clarification has risen in recent years. According to the S3-guideline ?Diagnosis, Therapy, and Follow-Up of Breast Cancer? as revised in July 2012, institutions performing breast MRI should provide the option of an MRI-guided intervention for clarification. This review describes the indications, methods and results of MRI-guided interventions for the clarification of breast lesions only visible on MRI. Recent guidelines and study results are also addressed and alternative methods and pitfalls are presented. Key points: Citation Format:
