Mercedes Arias, Abstract Co-Author: Nothing to Disclose

To describe the technique of DWI To examine different breast benign and malignant lesions that can present as false positives or false negatives in the sequence of DWI To explain the possible cause of error based on pathological correlation  

Technique of DWI     Description     How to quantify the ADC value in breast lesions on MRI Benign lesions that simulate malignancy     Appearance on DWI and ADC map     Morphology and enhancement pattern analysis     Pathological characteristics     Correlation between MRI and pathology to explain error in interpretation Malignant lesions that mimic benignancy     Appearance on DWI and ADC map     Morphology and enhancement pattern analysis     Pathological characteristics     Correlation between MRI and pathology to explain error in interpretation
