[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the imaging features of mass type invasive ductal breast cancer on dynamic MR imaging between different age groups.Materials and Methods: Consecutive cases of pathologic proven invasive ductal breast carcinoma of PLA army general hospital were reviewed retrospectively. Those cases which showed non-mass-like enhancement were excluded. The location, morphological features and the time signal intensity curve (TIC) type of the lesions were evaluated.Results: Sixty-five patients were enrolled in our study, the young group including 18 cases and the older group 47. The young group was more likely to display an undistinguished boundary (50%) than the older group (19.1%). There were no significant differences in other features, such as the location, size, shape and TIC type of the mass lesions.Conclusions: Invasive ductal breast cancer which showed mass like enhancement in young women was associated with more undistinguished boundary than the older group. The features may be suggestive of more aggressive, metastatic and a poorer prognosis of breast cancer in young women.
