Abstract
Fat necrosis of the breast is a common benign inflammatory process resulting from injury to breast fat. The pathogenesis of fat necrosis helps to explain its imaging features, which range from benign to malignant-appearing findings. This article reviews the role of magnetic resonance mammography and other conventional imaging techniques in the differential diagnosis of fat necrosis.
