Core Tip

Core Tip: The high sensitivity and repeatability of magnetic resonance imaging make it more widely used in disease screening and treatment. Its advantages in soft tissue resolution and radiation make it more meaningful for lesions that cannot be clarified by clinical and ultrasound techniques in breast examination. Especially, diffusion weighted imaging has more advantages in cell structure and cell membrane integrity.
