Abstract

Parametric analysis of breast MRI provides unique mapping of pathophysiological characteristics that cannot be obtained by standard conventional MRI. We describe in this review methods based on intrinsic contrast and tissue elasticity as well as methods that use external paramagnetic contrast agents and follow the time evolution of contrast. Processing of the raw data, frequently with new mathematical models and algorithms, yielded calculated parametric images that may help improve the noninvasive detection and diagnosis of breast cancer.
