Multiple T2 Hyperintense Lesions found on Liver in Grade 1 Breast Cancer MRI.

Hi everyone. Would appreciate any input or feedback based on the below.

My mother recently got diagnosed with a Grade 1, cancerous, Triple positive tumor of around 13mm in her breast. Also, it’s been clinically evaluated as T2 N0 and the oncologist said that it was caught super early and the prognosis is very good.

However, when doing an MRI (focusing on the breasts) extra findings were detected in the liver of multiple T2 Hyperintense lesions with the comment from the pathologist saying ‘more screening is required’.

The above has obviously made us all so anxious and worried since this accidental finding makes us worry that metastasis has occurred.

According to the oncologist, benign tumors on the liver is common, however, with the scary thought of the Breast cancer having metastasized into the liver is making us feel uncomfortable until we go for more screenings.

Also, there is no indication of any lymph node spread from the breast tumor but we have been told in very unusual cases there has been metastasis to the liver on tumor with the findings above.

Based on anyone’s feedback, does this look like it could be metastasis (straight from the breast the the liver while everything else was clean) or could it just be accidental findings of benign and multiple lesions on the liver?

Would appreciate any input as we’re all very nervous for our 59 year old mother right now.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
