Comparison of tumor on MRI and pathology.
| Multifocal/ Multicentric | Size on MRI | Size on pathology | |
|---|---|---|---|
| No re-excision (N = 67) | 16 (24%) | 2.0 ± 0.8 | 1.7 ± 0.8 |
| One re-excision (N = 31) | 17 (55%) | 2.6 ± 1.7 | 1.3 ± 0.9 |
| ≥2 re-excisions (N = 11) | 1 (9%) | 2.5 ± 1.9 | 1.5 ± 0.9 |
| p-value* | <0.01 | 0.02 | 0.11 |
*Among tumors that underwent no, one, and ≥two re-excisions, p-value of <0.05 reflects a significant difference in multifocal/multicentric disease and tumor size on MRI.
