MRI Beats Mammograms at Spotting Early Breast Cancer 08.10.07, 12:00 AM ET FRIDAY, Aug. 10 (HealthDay News) -- MRI appears to be better than mammograms at finding breast cancer before it spreads, German researchers report. However, despite the technology's advantages, its cost and a lack of people skilled at reading breast MRIs means it won't replace mammograms any time soon, experts say. "MRI is more powerful and accurate for diagnosing pre-invasive breast cancer called ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)," concluded lead research Dr. Christiane Kuhl, from the Department of Radiology at the University of Bonn. Her team published its findings in the Aug. 11 issue of The Lancet. Most breast cancers arise from cells that build up in the inner lining of the milk duct, Kuhl explained. As long as this cancer is confined to the duct, it is considered benign and does not spread. "If you identify breast cancer at this stage and remove it, the patient is healed -- always," she said. "Avoiding invasive breast cancer is even better than early diagnosis." forbes.com
