Final Pathologic Findings on Surgery Cohort: 6 of 8 patients underwent surgery for progression on follow-up MMG and MRI. 5 of 8 patients had stage I IDC at surgical intervention, including 3 of whom showed increasing mass-like enhancement, one showed increasing extent of disease, and one showed extensive disease that did not continue to respond to endocrine therapy. One patient developed a contralateral mammographically occult finding during surveillance that showed DCIS on MRI-directed core biopsy (patient 9).
