Summary

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women in our country (2013 cancer registry report, Health Promotion Administration). MRI is a more accurate imaging modality for breast lesion diagnosis, monitoring of treatment response, and local staging than compared with mammography and ultrasound. ¹⁸ F-FDG PET was reported to be used for breast cancer diagnosis, staging, and prediction of treatment response as well. We usually interpret the aforementioned imaging modalities by qualitative methods for decision-making. Radiomics is a process involving the conversion of images to quantitative data for subsequent data mining to improve decisional making for patient care, to adjust the patient management, that is so-called precision medicine. Our study is to use semantic and agnostic features of radiomics by hybrid PET/MR for 1. The pre-operative breast cancer patients (without neoadjuvant chemotherapy before operation). 2. The patients will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The study intends to investigate the association of PET/MR radiomics data with the probability of metastasis or risk of recurrences and survival. We will also investigate if the BD and BPE (measured on MRI) are associated with molecular subtypes, histologic grade and clinical outcome, risk of metastases, and long-term survival of breast cancer patients for the study participants.

Interventions

RADIATION

PET/MR

Study 1- pre-NAC PET/MR; Study 2- first follow-up PET/MR is performed after first dose of NAC; Study 3, second follow-up PET/MR is performed after third or fourth dose of the NAC. The NAC protocol is mainly antracycline-based followed by taxane-based regimen for a total of 6-8 cycles.
