Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to show the clinical and radiologic features of a variety of diffuse, infi ltrative breast lesions, as well to review the relevant literature. Radiologists must be familiar with the various conditions that can diffusely involve the breast, including normal physiologic changes, benign disease and malignant neoplasm.
