Synopsis

Keywords: Breast, VisualizationA wearable coil worn like a vest (“BraCoil”) has recently been shown to improve signal-to-noise ratio by a factor of up to three in supine breast MRI. However, the visualization of supine breast images is inefficient when using Cartesian views due to the bent shape of the breast along the chest wall. We introduce a panoramic view similar to panoramic dental X-ray to make reading of supine breast MRI more efficient by reducing the number of slices by a factor of 2-4, depending on breast size.
