carcinoma of the breast. The nodule shows a curve type I.
Following administration of gadolinium, there can be three possible enhancement (time intensity) kinetic curves for a lesion on breast MRI (these are also applied in other organs such as prostate MRI). These are sometimes termed the Kuhl enhancement curves.
- type I curve: progressive or persistent enhancement pattern
- typically shows a continuous increase in signal intensity throughout time
- usually considered benign with only a small proportion of (~9%) of malignant lesions having this pattern
- type II curve: plateau pattern
- initial uptake followed by the plateau phase towards the latter part of the study
- considered concerning for malignancy
- type III curve: washout pattern
- has a relatively rapid uptake shows reduction in enhancement towards the latter part of the study
- considered strongly suggestive of malignancy
