High-precision imaging

Breast cancer screening using MRI

Early detection of breast cancer

Breast MRI is a very precise imaging method for the early detection of breast cancer. It provides detailed insights into the breast tissue, especially in dense tissue. Therefore, the detection rate of the smallest tumors and abnormalities is significantly higher compared to conventional methods.

Higher sensitivity

Traditional screening examinations of the female breast are X-ray mammography and sonography. However, breast MRI has a higher sensitivity, i.e. the method can detect breast cancer particularly reliably. In addition to the breast, the local lymph nodes are also examined. The examination has no radiation exposure.

Very effective

MRI mammography enables the early detection of breast cancer. This method is particularly effective for dense breast tissue and high-risk patients.

Advantages of MRI

MRI offers a high level of sensitivity and can detect the smallest tumors that are overlooked by a mammogram, for example. It also works without X-rays, which makes it safer.

Implementation

The examination requires intravenous administration of a contrast agent and takes around 30-60 minutes. Although it is more expensive than a mammogram, it offers a more precise diagnosis and therefore increases the chances of early treatment and recovery.
