With the MRI I am able to take images that slice the breast, so the density doesn't obscure my ability to see inside the breast. Breast imaging is the most significant application of MRI I've seen in the last six years. It is very sensitive. Certainly more sensitive than mammography. We can pick up lesions as small as a few millimeters.
Early detection is early survival.
