47-year-old woman with left breast palpable mass with false-negative finding on CEM. MLO low-energy (A) and recombined (B) images demonstrate no suspicious finding. Ultrasound targeted to site of palpable concern was also negative (not shown). Given persistent palpable concern, MRI was performed. Sagittal MRI postcontrast subtraction image (C) shows an enhancing focus at the site of palpable concern in the retroareolar region. MRI-guided biopsy yielded ductal carcinoma in situ. CEM may not detect all cancers, particularly if they are small or low-grade.
