By Xiaowen Ma, Yifeng Chen, Jinlong Zheng and 9 others.
Abstract
A 58-year-old woman with invasive carcinoma of no special type in the right breast. (A) Axial T2-weighted image; (B) Axial contrast-enhanced T1-weighted image; (C) Stiffness maps (c) derived from 10-frequency MRE, matched to the same anatomical slice as the contrast-enhanced sequence. After systematic multi-dimensional image quality evaluation, stiffness map reconstructed from the 40–70 Hz frequency range achieved the best overall performance across all assessment indicators.
