Beyond the Trade-Off: Achieving High Spatial and Temporal Resolution in Breast DCE-MRI Using a Novel 4D Stack-of-Stars Sequence
The proposed 4D-DCE technique enables robust breast DCE-MRI with high spatial and temporal resolution. Combining ultrafast and conventional acquisitions within a single protocol improves diagnostic confidence and BI-RADS agreement.
