Abstract

Breast MRI is the most accurate adjunctive to the mammography for the screening of breast cancer. Despite lack of randomized controlled trials on the effectiveness of MRI screening, it is now recommended for the women at high risk for breast cancer by the American Cancer Society and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network based on several prospective observational studies. In Korea, a retrospective study reported that preoperative MRI screening of the contralateral breast in women with unilateral breast cancer was associated with reduced metachronous cancer incidence. To introduce breast MRI as a supplemental modality to screening mammography in Korea, standardization and education of interpretation, establishment of MR-guided biopsy and adequate indication, and evaluation of cost-effectiveness and should be preceded.

유방 MRI는 유방암의 유방촬영 스크리닝법에 대한 가장 정확한 보완 검사법이다. 아직까지 MRI 스크리닝의 효과에 대한 무작위 대조군연구가 없음에도 불구하고, 현재 미국암학회와 국립 종합암네트워크 (NCCN)에서는 MRI 스크리닝을 유방암 고위험여성에서 권고하고 있다. 국내에서는, 한 후향적 연구에서 유방암 환자의 반대쪽 유방암에 대한 MRI 스크리닝법이 유방촬영술과 초음파에서 발견하지 못한 암을 발견하고 이는 이후 유방암 발병을 감소시킴을 보고하고 있다. 국내에 유방촬영 스크리닝법의 보완법으로 MRI를 도입하기 위해서는 판독의 표준화와 교육, MR 유도하 조직검사법과 적절한 적응증의 확립, 비용-효용성에 대한 평가가 선결되어야 한다.
