119 patients undergoing pre-operative MRI of the breasts. The findings changed management in 48 patients (40.3%). The change in clinical management and patient benefit were independent of BD and TT (p > 0.05).
The percentage of additional biopsies of benign lesions was 10.1%
NB No difference in outcome between tumour types (rather unexpected)
