Fig. 5B. 34 year-old woman with palpable mass in upper outer quadrant
of right breast in whom core biopsy yielded ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).
Mammogram (not shown) revealed moderately dense breasts and irregular,
spiculated mass with pleomorphic calcifications in right upper outer quadrant.
Sagittal T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MR image of left (contralateral) breast
shows irregularly shaped, irregularly marginated, heterogeneously enhancing
1.5 cm mass (arrow) in upper outer quadrant. MR imagingguided
needle localization (not shown) yielded proliferative fibrocystic change.
Patient chose to undergo prophylactic left mastectomy during same procedure,
which revealed no evidence of carcinoma.
