AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL (AIH) IMPLEMENTS BREAST MRI WITH THE CUTTING-EDGE SIEMENS TECHNOLOGIES

AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL (AIH) IMPLEMENTS BREAST MRI WITH THE CUTTING-EDGE SIEMENS TECHNOLOGIES

15/05/2025

Starting May 05, 2025, American International Hospital officially implemented breast MRI service using the Siemens 1.5 Telsa. This new advancement in early screening and detection of breast cancer at AIH provides a precise and modern screening solution for high-risk individuals or those under monitoring for breast conditions.

What is Breast MRI?

Breast MRI is a magnetic resonance technique using dedicated breast coil to capture high-resolution images, providing clear and detailed visualization of the breast tissue structures. Breast MRI uses a dedicated coil specially designed to conform to the shape of the breast. This helps:

• Increase accuracy in detecting lesions

• Decrease interference from surrounding tissue

• Assist doctors in precisely identifying  location, size and tumor’s characteristics if any.

This technique is combined with an intravenous contrast agent, to highlight abnormal tissue growth – a hallmark of early-stage breast cancer.

Why Choose Breast MRI for Breast Cancer Screening?

 In addition to ultrasound and mammography, breast MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a powerful tool that enhances diagnostic and screening accuracy - especially in cases where traditional methods make assessment challenging. Breast MRI has been proven to be the most sensitive and accurate modality currently available for early detection of breast cancer.

Who Should Consider a Breast MRI?

Breast MRI is an advanced imaging method that is indicated or recommended for the following individuals: 
• Women at high risk for breast cancer, including those with BRCA1/BRCA2 gene mutations or a family history of breast or ovarian cancer. 
• Individuals with dense breast tissue, which reduces the effectiveness of mammograms. 
• Patients being monitored for suspicious lesions that require further evaluation after ultrasound or mammogram with inconclusive results. 
• Breast cancer patients under treatment, who need preoperative assessment of tumor size or monitoring of treatment response. 
• Individuals with a history of breast cancer who require monitoring for recurrence in the same or opposite breast.

Outstanding Advantages of Breast MRI at American International Hospital (AIH): 
• Equipped with a dedicated Siemens breast coil for enhanced imaging accuracy, reduced interference, and higher resolution. 
• Non-invasive, radiation-free – ensuring maximum safety for patients. 
• Performed by a team of experienced radiologists with multidisciplinary collaboration at AIH.
