Title
Magnetic Resonance in the Detection of Breast Cancers of Different Histological Types
Abstract
Breast cancer incidence is increasing worldwide. Early detection is critical for long-term patient survival, as is monitoring responses to chemotherapy for management of the disease. Magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (MRI/MRS) has gained in importance in the last decade for the diagnosis and monitoring of breast cancer therapy. The sensitivity of MRI/MRS for anatomical delineation is very high and the consensus is that MRI is more sensitive in detection than x-ray mammography. Advantages of MRS include delivery of biochemical information about tumor metabolism, which can potentially assist in the staging of cancers and monitoring responses to treatment. The roles of MRS and MRI in screening and monitoring responses to treatment of breast cancer are reviewed here. We rationalize how it is that different histological types of breast cancer are differentially detected and characterized by MR methods.

Interview with Professor Jamie DaviesThe quality of each of the reviews was outstanding, and greatly helped me make the paper so much more readable and valuable. The entire process was so much more supportive and communicative than with other journals I have dealt with. Congratulations on building a fantastic academic publishing organization.
