The value of MRI contrast enhancement in biopsy decision of suspicious mammographic microcalcifications: a prospective multicenter study.

• All invasive cancer cases and 87.8% of all in situ cancer cases were detected with MRI, showing a low false-negative rate of 4.7%. • Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI can be used in the decision-making algorithm to decrease the number of biopsies in mammography-detected suspicious calcifications, with a tradeoff for overlooking a small number of DCIS cases that are predominantly low-to-medium grade. • If a decision for biopsy were made based on MRI findings in mammography-detected microcalcifications in this study, biopsy would not be performed to 119 cases (26.8%).
