Ms. Smith is a 52 year-old female presenting for an MR biopsy of the right breast. She has a personal history of LCIS/ALH and a strong family history of breast cancer. Upon evaluation of the post-contrast images, the previously visualized area in the right central breast is no longer appreciated. Therefore, the procedure was aborted and plan to perform a short term 6 month follow-up was made in order to confirm that this area of prior enhancement simply represented background parenchymal enhancement. The MR procedure was performed by Dr. Sheth.

A short term 6 month follow-up MRI is recommended in order to confirm that this area of prior enhancement simply represents background parenchymal enhancement. BIRADS: 3 - Probably benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: 3B - Followup at Short Interval (1-11 Months).
