Axillary Lymph Nodes T2 Signal Intensity Characterization in MRI of Patients With Mucinous Breast Cancer: A Pilot Study
Metastatic axillary lymph nodes exhibit high T2 SI, which could serve as a functional biomarker beyond traditional morphological assessment. Future studies should prioritize investigating more precise measurements, such as T2 mapping, and confirm these results in larger groups and across mucinous neoplasms in other organs.
