This study determines if classifying breast cancer patients by subtype improves the ability of integrated DCE-MRI and DW-MRI to predict eventual response after the first cycle of NAC. The patients were divided into three groups according to receptor status: 1) ER-/PR-/HER2-, 2) HER2+, and 3) HR+/HER2-. These preliminary results demonstrate that DCE- and DW-MRI may be able to better predict treatment response for patients with particular receptor status. This observation should be confirmed in a large cohort in the future.
