Abstract

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to determine the rate of malignancy in incidentally detected T2 hyperintense hepatic lesions at breast MRI. MethodsIncidental hepatic lesions identified during breast MRI, for which abdominal imaging was recommended, were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsOf the hepatic lesions, 97.3% were benign, and 2.7% were malignant, with a significant association between indication for the breast MRI and the malignancy status of the hepatic lesion (Fisher's Exact, P < 0.0142). ConclusionOur initial experience suggests the benign nature of incidentally detected T2 hyperintense hepatic lesions at breast MRI in women without a newly diagnosed breast cancer.
