MRI of breast
Hi all
Wishing everyone a good weekend. I am just about one year from my
diagnosis and surgery. I asked the surgeon about an MRI of the breast and
he said your mammo was fine but if you want one, ok, doesn't hurt to check.
How many of you have had MRI's done and how did it go. I understand there
is no open MRI of the breast and it has to be done in the tube since it is so
new and there are false positives but it does catch some things a mammo
would not. I hate enclosed places but am seeking your opinion and thoughts
on the MRI. Thanks
Patb
