Clinical application and progress of synthetic MRI in breast cancer
Synthetic MRI(SyMRI)is an increasingly mature quantitative magnetic resonance imaging technology,which can obtain a variety of contrast weighted image reconstruction in a short scan,and can directly obtain quantitative parameters reflecting the biophysical properties of tissues.The Tl,T2 and proton density(PD)values obtained by this technique play an important role in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast,molecular typing evaluation,histological grading prediction and prognosis evaluation,and are now more and more widely practiced in clinical practice.This paper reviews the principle of SyMRI technology and the research progress and prospects in breast diseases,hoping to help radiologists to have a more comprehensive understanding of breast cancer-related image manifestations and provide objective and accurate imaging information for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
