[Abstract] Breast MRI has been widely applied in the diagnosis as well as evaluation of breast cancer. Performing high quality breast MRI examination is essential to accuracy and reliability of clinical usage of the modality. This article summarized key points that determine quality of breast MRI in the processes of performing examination, including schedule, patient preparation, protocol design, image acquisition, interpretation and reporting, provided advice and methods to optimize, in order to be instructive to perform good quality breast MRI in clinical settings.
