Synopsis

This work investigates the correlations between PET/MR imaging parameters and histopathological factors of breast tumors extracted from image-guided biopsy. Results from our work show that PET and some MR parameters are statistically correlated to histopathological factors. Moreover, the integration of PET and MR (DCE-MR and ADC) parameters might help in the prediction of histopathological factors.
