Article Title: Illustrated breast MR lexicon
Abstract: A group of international breast MRI experts is currently working on a definitive lexicon for breast MRI that will incorporate both morphologic and kinetic features of lesions identified on breast MRI. The work to develop the lexicon is supported currently by the American College of Radiology (ACR). This article is aimed at introducing this material and should not be used as a definitive guide as the breast MRI lexicon is a work in progress. It is hoped that radiologists will use the terms and concepts presented here as a template to which future lexicon terminology can be added.
