The molecular classification of breast cancer has allowed for a better understanding of both prognosis and treatment of breast cancer. Imaging of the different molecular subtypes has revealed that biologically different tumors often exhibit typical features in mammography, ultrasound, and MRI. Here, we introduce the molecular classification of breast cancer and review the typical imaging features of each subtype, examining the predictive value of imaging with respect to distant metastases.
乳腺癌的分子分类有助于更好地理解乳腺癌的预后和治疗。对不同分子亚型的成像显示,生物学特性不同的肿瘤在乳房X线摄影、超声和磁共振成像中常表现出典型特征。在此,我们介绍乳腺癌的分子分类,并回顾各亚型的典型成像特征,探讨成像对远处转移的预测价值。
