Abstract
BACKGROUND: Early-stage breast cancer patients often lack specific clinical manifestations, making diagnosis difficult. Molybdenum target X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations both have their own advantages. Thus, a combined examination methodology may improve early breast cancer diagnoses. AIM: To explore the combined diagnostic efficacy of molybdenum target X-ray and MRI examinations in breast cancer. METHODS: T-wave peak, peak and early enhancement rates, and apparent diffusion coefficient) were compared between the groups. RESULTS: 0.05). CONCLUSION: Combined molybdenum target X-ray and MRI examinations for diagnosing breast cancer improved the diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy, minimizing the missed- and misdiagnoses risks and promoting timely treatment intervention.
