What can a breast MRI detect?
An MRI along with our AI-driven analysis, can identify small changes that may not be visible on a mammogram, especially for women with dense breast tissue. This includes:
- Small tumors
- Cancer recurrence
- Breast implant changes
Who should consider a breast MRI?
A breast MRI may be recommended if you have any high-risk factors for getting breast cancer in your lifetime. Some small changes are not always visible on a mammogram, especially for women with very dense breast tissue. A breast MRI can give you clearer insight and greater peace of mind. Talk with your healthcare provider about whether it’s the right choice for you.

Breast MRI is an invaluable tool in the detection and management of breast cancer, particularly for women at high risk or with dense breast tissue. Its superior sensitivity allows us to identify abnormalities that might be missed by other imaging methods, providing a comprehensive view of breast health. By integrating Breast MRI and advanced AI technology into our diagnostic arsenal, we ensure that our patients receive the most accurate and thorough care possible.

A mammogram uses low-dose X-ray technology, while an MRI uses magnetic fields and contrast dye to create highly detailed images. MRI is typically used when more information is needed beyond a mammogram.
The scan typically lasts 30-60 minutes, and you can resume normal activities afterward.
In most cases, a referral is required if the MRI is for diagnostic purposes. If your mammogram results indicate the need for an MRI, your provider will guide you through the next steps.
During a breast MRI, you will lie face down on a padded table with openings for your breasts. The table then slides into the MRI machine, which captures detailed images using strong magnets. The scan is painless, involves no radiation, and typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. You may hear loud tapping sounds as the machine operates, which is completely normal.
No, the procedure is painless, but you will need to lie still inside the MRI machine while the images are taken.
Your radiologist will provide a detailed report. If further evaluation is needed, SimonMed offers comprehensive follow-up options, including biopsy services.
