A case of DCIS with microinvasive carcinoma (T3N1). a Mammography revealed no spiculated mass lesions or microcalcifications. b Complementary US revealed upper central and outer quadrant benign looking lesions; however, biopsy was recommended. c DCE-MRI breast revealed left breast segmental heterogeneous area of pathological non-mass enhancement seen partially involving both the upper and lower outer quadrants extending from 1 to 5 o’clock position. The pathological enhancement is seen extending to reach the nipple. d Facilitated diffusion was noted on DWI-MRI. In this case, DCE-MRI revealed the same tumor size stage correlating to the pathological specimen result, while SM and DWI-MRI missed the lesion
