Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to identify characteristics that can differentiate between pure mucinous breast carcinomas (PMBCs) and fibroadenomas (FAs) with strong high-signal intensity on T2-weighted images (T2-SHi) from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI). Methods: The DCE-MRI tumor characteristics were compared and analyzed between 35 PMBCs and 70 FAs with T2-SHi. Results: Multivariate analysis revealed that delayed enhancement pattern was the only significant independent predictor (p = 0.007). Conclusion: A delayed enhancement pattern is the most reliable characteristic for differentiating PMBCs from FAs with T2-SHi from DCE-MRI.
