Fig. 3C. In 57-year-old woman, multifocal tumor is seen on three
successive slices (shown across each row) from lateral to medial parts of
breasts. Initial MR images (A), MR images after two courses of
chemotherapy (B), and preoperative MR images after completion of
chemotherapy (C) all show two main central tumor nodules associated
with smaller peripheral nodules (arrows, A) confined in one
quadrant. B and C show nodule shrinkage in response to therapy
but persistence of two small nodules on preoperative MR images (C).
