尽管最近在乳房X线摄影设备和技术方面有所改进,但放射学上致密的乳房仍然难以成像。致密乳腺成像中的问题占乳房X线摄影“漏诊”癌病例的很大比例。其他成像模式,如超声波检查,透照,热成像,计算机断层扫描,磁共振成像,放射性核素成像已被调查用于乳腺癌检测。本综述讨论了目前的问题与影像学致密乳腺,并提出了一些途径的调查,以制定解决这些问题。
Despite recent improvements in mammography equipment and technique, the radiographically dense breast remains difficult to image. The problems in imaging the dense breast account for a large percentage of the cases of mammographically ''missed'' carcinomas. Other imaging modalities-such as ultrasonography, transillumination, thermography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and radionuclide imaging-have been investigated for use in breast cancer detection. This overview discusses the current problems associated with imaging of the radiographically dense breast and suggests some avenues for investigation to develop solutions to these problems.
