Figure 2 Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), and chest computed tomography (CT) images demonstrating the measurement process. In this 36-year-old patient, the procedure for obtaining measurements from the left outer quadrant of the breast (fibroglandular tissue) is illustrated. (A) Axial T2-weighted MRI image, (B) MRE elastogram (color map), (C) Fusion image, and (D) Non-contrast axial chest CT.
