Summary: Young women undergoing breast conserving therapy have a higher risk of local recurrence compared to mastectomy alone. Despite aggressive salvage treatments, those with local recurrence after breast conserving therapy have poor prognosis. Novel systemic treatments are needed to improve outcomes for young women with breast cancer undergoing breast conserving therapy.

Summary: Overall, AB-MRI shows improved detection of ipsilateral LTR compared to conventional imaging modalities like MG and US in patients who underwent oncoplastic BCS with ADM. AB-MRI has higher sensitivity and better cancer detection rate, making it a recommended surveillance option for these patients.

Summary: Among women with T1N0 grade 1 or 2 luminal A breast cancer who had undergone breast-conserving surgery and received endocrine therapy, the incidence of local recurrence at 5 years was low without radiotherapy.

Summary: This study is a prospective trial to evaluate the effectiveness of breast-conserving therapy in patients with multiple foci of breast cancer. The results demonstrate that breast-conserving surgery with adjuvant radiation can significantly reduce the 5-year recurrence rate. It suggests that breast-conserving therapy is a reasonable option, especially for patients evaluated with preoperative breast MRI.

Summary: This study aimed to predict candidates for breast-conserving surgery (BCS) using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The radiomics features from pre- and post-NAC DCE-MRI were significantly related to breast cancer shrinkage. The combined model with features from pre-post-NAC DCE-MRI showed better predictive performance.

Summary: This study found that a higher volume ratio of U1/U2 derived from ultrafast DCE-MRI was independently associated with pathological complete response in triple-negative invasive breast cancer. Other kinetic features were also associated with pathological complete response in hormone receptor-positive cancers.

Summary: This study suggests that omission of radiotherapy in older women with low-risk, hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer may increase the risk of local recurrence, but has no detrimental effect on distant recurrence and overall survival.

Summary: The study found that the response evaluation after NAC assessed by both MRI and pathology has an impact on DFS in breast cancer patients. Patients with consistent radiological and pathological responses have a better DFS curve, while those with only MRI or pathology response, or no response, have a higher risk of recurrence.

Summary: The study investigated the use of MRI criteria to identify residual tumors in patients with triple-negative and HER2+ breast cancer following neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Different parameters showed varying diagnostic performances in distinguishing residual tumors in different subtypes of breast cancer. The results suggest that MRI-based identification of residual tumors is feasible in selected patients.

Summary: The study analyzed the prognostic impact of isolated local recurrence (ILR) in early-breast cancer patients treated with breast-conserving therapy, and found that the cumulative breast cancer mortality rates after ILR varied depending on the timing of ILR. A multistate model was able to predict long-term outcomes based on individual patient characteristics.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of multiparametric breast magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) for predicting response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with luminal B subtype breast cancer. The study showed that breast mpMRI evaluation before and after two cycles of NAC can effectively predict treatment response.

Summary: In the phase III PENELOPE-B trial, it was found that palbociclib did not improve invasive disease-free survival when combined with endocrine therapy in HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer patients, especially those at high risk for recurrence following neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Summary: This study evaluated and compared DWI and DCE-MRI in predicting the pathological response of breast cancer to NAC, finding no significant difference in diagnostic performance between the two modalities. DWI may be a potential substitute for DCE-MRI, but caution is needed due to the heterogeneity of included studies.

Summary: MR perfusion imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with gliomas. Based on our experience, multiparametric MR perfusion imaging improves the ability to differentiate glioma recurrence or progression from treatment-related changes compared to using a single MR perfusion technique.
