Abstract:Purpose: Our single-center retrospective study aimed to investigate the relationship between preoperative dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) findings and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) status of the lesions in patients with clinically-radiologically lymph node-negative invasive breast cancer. Methods: A total of 250 breast lesions diagnosed in preoperative magnetic resonance imaging were identified. All patients were divided into 2 subg… Show more
