[Abstract] Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been evolved as an indispensable noninvasive approach for diagnosis of breast diseases. The high quality images is crucial for breast MRI examination. The basic technical requirements, the major parameters and sequence optimization, the recommmended MRI sequences for the breast MRI as well as the post-processing techniques were briefly introduced in this article.
