Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI is an important tool for
detection and characterization of breast lesions. With
the availability of high field systems for clinical
routine (3T) and research (7T) increased SNR and spatial
resolution may improve diagnostic accuracy for breast
MRI. To test the feasibility of breast MRI at 3T and 7T
specificity, sensitivity and SNR were calculated in 24
patients. In addition B1-maps were measured at 3T and 7T
in five healthy subjects.
