MRI of Breast Lymphoma: A Report of Two Cases with Emphasis on Diffusion Weighted Imaging and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Value
Breast lymphoma is a rare neoplasm that accounts for approximately 0.04-0.5% of breast malignancies. Most breast lymphomas are B-cell type non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The imaging features of breast lymphoma on mammography and ultrasound are nonspecific. There have been several reports on magnetic reso...

description | Breast lymphoma is a rare neoplasm that accounts for approximately 0.04-0.5% of
breast malignancies. Most breast lymphomas are B-cell type non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
The imaging features of breast lymphoma on mammography and ultrasound are nonspecific.
There have been several reports on magnetic resonance imaging characteristics
of breast lymphoma but only few have described features on diffusion weighted
imaging. Herein, we describe the magnetic resonance imaging findings, with emphasis
on diffusion weighted imaging and the apparent diffusion coefficient sequences, of two
cases of breast lymphoma and compare them with the magnetic resonance imaging
features reported in the literature. |
