MRI
Does DCIS show up on a MRI scan?
Forum Discussion
Hello @Lisa Janelle it is a good question, I found this excerpt as follows
Mammography largely detects DCIS through the presence of microcalcifications on the X-ray image.MRI is actually not very effective at identifying microcalcifications. On an MR image, calcium deposits can occasionally be seen as tiny signal voids, but they are not as reliably detected as with mammography.
