1 Feasibility of Magnetic Resonance Imaging–guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery as an Adjunct to Tamoxifen Therapy in High-risk Surgical Patients with Breast Carcinoma  David Gianfelice, MD, Abdesslem Khiat, PhD, Yvan Boulanger, PhD, Mourad Amara, DES, Assia Belblidia, MD  Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology  Volume 14, Issue 10, Pages (October 2003) DOI: /01.RVI A2 Copyright © 2003 Society of Interventional Radiology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Sche-matic diagram demonstrating patient in prone position and MR imaging–guided focused US sur-gery equipment. Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology  , DOI: ( /01.RVI A2) Copyright © 2003 Society of Interventional Radiology Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Table insert situated in MR apparatus, which houses a 10-cm transducer (arrowhead) and a series of pistons that allow transducer displacement (straight arrows).

5 Figure 4 Complex gradient-recall echo image with phase subtraction (TR, 38 msec; TE, 4 msec; flip angle, 45°) demonstrating a hyperintense area (arrow) after a single-point treatment, indicating thermal damage in the treatment area.

6 Figure 5 (a) Pretreatment coronal T1-weighted image (TR, 500 msec; TE, 14 msec) demonstrating an easily visible small stellate breast carcinoma (arrow) surrounded by fatty tissue. (b) Posttreatment coronal T1-weighted image of the same patient (TR, 500 msec; TE, 14 msec) without contrast material infusion demonstrates MR imaging–guided focused US surgery treatment margin (arrow), which represents destruction of the fatty tissue surrounding the treated neoplasm (curved arrow). (c) Posttreatment sagittal T1-weighted image from the same patient demonstrates treatment margin (arrow) surrounding the centrally located breast neoplasm (curved arrow).
