Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Sonographic correlation of breast MRI findings is often challenging. We present a preliminary in vivo feasibility study evaluating the degree of error of a new MRI-sonography coregistration system for showing MRI and sonographically visible breast lesions. CONCLUSION: In 10 patients with 13 lesions, the system was found to be an accurate means for targeting sonography to MRI of the same breast lesions.
