[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the value of dynamic contrast enhanced MR subtraction imaging in evaluation of the blood supply of breast cancer.Materials and Methods: The VIBRANT (volume imaging for breast assessment) dynamic contrast enhanced MR examination were obtained in sixty-seven patients with breast cancer, and its processed subtraction image was made to evaluate the interal and lateral thoracic artery and their branches and relationship between vessel and lesion. The showed-vascular MRI data on both normal breast and abnormal breast with lesion were statistically analyzed.Results: On normal and abnormal breast subtraction MR image, the first grade (I) branch of the interal and lateral thoracic artery and intercostal artery was no significant difference (P > 0.05) and the second garde (II) the interal and lateral thoracic artery was significant difference (P < 0.05).Conclusion: Dynamic contrast enhanced MR and its processed subtraction image can display blood supply of breast cancer well.
