Abstract
Although mammography is currently the imaging technique of choice for screening and diagnosis, it has some limitations, especially in patients with high-density breasts. The evolution from film screen to full-field digital mammography has recently led to the development of new imaging techniques, which are less expensive and widely available. Contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) is one of them, coupling X-ray breast imaging to the intravenous administration of an iodinated contrast material. CESM provides both morphological information, similar to mammography, and functional information of tumor perfusion. In this review, the imaging technique, the specificity of interpretation of CESM compared to MRI and the currently available data are presented. The clinical performances of CESM versus those of mammography and MRI and its additional value in preoperative local assessment and screening is discussed. The potential advantages and disadvantages are mentioned and we also discuss how CESM contributes to the detection of lesions and how it can be used in daily clinical workflow.
