Abstract
Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is emerging as a viable alternative to contrast-enhanced breast MRI, effectively reducing examination cost. Intravenous iodinated contrast material is used in CEM to enhance the visualization of tumor neovascularity. After injection, imaging is performed with dual-energy digital mammography, which helps provide a low-energy image and a recombined or iodine image that depict enhancing lesions in the breast. The utility of Contrast enhanced Mammography is under study and is substituting as Poor Man MRI, easier to interpret with wider accessibility available.
