We
have demonstrated that the breast density analyzed based on a 3D MR method
can be used to investigate the changes associated with tamoxifen treatment.
We found a significant reduction in fibroglandular tissue volume and percent
breast density after treatment, and the density reduction was positively
correlated with the baseline density and treatment duration.
