Routine mammographic and ultrasonographic features of this disease also mimic the those of malignant disease, making an accurate preoperative diagnosis difficult. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), however, reveals a homogeneous low-enhancement with a gradual and progressive course without a washout. A corresponding time intensity curve is related to benign lesions of low vascularity, and by being a potential criterion for making a differentiation between DFM and malignant processes, spares patients from excisional biopsy.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBreastDiabetic fibrous mastopathyDynamic contrast-enhanced MRIArticle1043593621523979710.1111/j.1075-122X.2004.21382.x2-s2.0-3142691152Q2
