[Abstract] Axillary lymph node dissection of breast cancer has different degree of dissection according to different conditions, which requires the detailed imaging results of breast cancer lymph nodes before operation to evaluate its resectability. There are many imaging methods to evaluate the resectability of lymph nodes in breast cancer, including ultrasound, X-ray, CT, MRI, nuclear medicine, etc. MRI has the best diagnostic performance and can provide rich imaging information. In terms of the resectability of lymph nodes in breast cancer, mDIXON technology is applied to axillary vascular imaging to provide detailed information about the relationship between axillary lymph nodes and blood vessels, guide the preoperative evaluation of lymph node dissection in breast cancer and formulate the operation plan, so as to reduce the amount of bleeding.
