Abstract:
Most breast cancers are diagnosed by conventional breast imaging which includes mammography, ultrasound and MRI. However, CT is an often overlooked modality in the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. Incidental findings of breast cancer by CT are not so rare. This article aims to aware radiologists and gynaecologists to the potential of breast cancer detection with CT. In this brief review of the literature, we will discuss the morphological characteristics of breast tumours on CT and the imaging mangement of suspicious lesions discovered on CT.

Despite advancements in breast cancer management, metastatic disease remains a challenge. Thymic metastasis is an infrequent site of involvement. We intend to report a rare case of a woman in her 40s who presented with bilateral nipple discharge for 2 months. A triple assessment confirmed left breast carcinoma. A staging CT scan and positron emission tomography scan revealed an anterior mediastinal mass of thymic origin, and histology confirmed metastatic breast cancer. The patient made a good recovery following surgical and oncological treatment.

Background: Breast cancer remains the most commonly occurring cancer among women across the world and accounts for 69% of cancer deaths. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has been effective in downstaging a primary tumor before surgery. In this study, a fluorine-18, 2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) scan was used to determine the metabolic and morphological changes of breast cancer after therapy. An 18F-FDG PET/CT scan was done before and after NACT. The change in maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) ultimately reflects the metabolic stat
