Figure 6.
Patient with multifocal Nottingham grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma. Grey-scale volume rendering of the first high spatial resolution post contrast scan (~120 seconds after contrast injection) with a color map of initial slope of contrast enhancement (linear regression fit of the first 4 DISCO-DCE dynamic phases) clearly depicts rapid contrast enhancement in many small satellite foci (solid arrows), and a likely metastatic axillary lymph node (dashed arrow). The large blue region in the middle of the image is part of the heart, which also enhances and is acquired as part of the axial acquisition.
