MR
Think about how you identify this type of study, relative radiation dose, field of view, spatial resolution, any patient considerations or preparation, strengths, weaknesses and most frequent uses for this type of study. How can you tell this is not a CT? Think about the signal from fat and what it tells you about how this scan was done. This is the same patient whose mammogram was previously shown. How does the appearance of the MR correlate to the finding on mammography?
