Using ultrafast DCE (UF-DCE) MRI with compressed sensing reconstruction, size and morphology of breast lesions on very early phase images within 1 minutes post contrast injection were compared to those on conventional DCE (C-DCE) MRI. The size of the lesions was slightly smaller on UF-DCE but within-2mm difference in approximately 80 % of the lesions. Morphological evaluations were the same in approximately 80% of the lesions yet irregular margin and clustered ring on C-DCE MRI may not be reflected to the appearance on UF-DCE, which should be noted in interpreting lesions using UF-DCE.
