Key Points

The aim is to explore the role of breast MRI in managing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and its implications for surgical decisions.
Analyzed incidental findings on MRI in patients with DCIS.
Correlated MRI findings with mastectomy rates.
Evaluated the occurrence of overtreatment through MRI utilization.
Incidental MRI findings were linked to an increased rate of mastectomy.
No significant instances of overtreatment or unnecessary mastectomies were identified.
MRI is suggested as a valuable tool in surgical decision-making for pure DCIS.

Implication

Investigating MRI's impact on surgical outcomes in ductal carcinoma in situ, suggesting a potential for improved decision-making.
