*Teaching Points: The timely and accurate follow-up of patients with a history of breast cancer is mandatory. Women with a personal history of breast cancer are at an increased risk of either a local recurrence or a new primary breast cancer. Local recurrence can increase the risk of distant metastasis or breast cancer-related deaths, and previous studies have shown that early detection of second breast cancers can decrease the mortality rates.Surveillance is essential for the detection of recurrent disease at the earliest possible stage, allowing for prompt treatment, and potentially improving overall survival. International guidelines recommend annual mammography as the only surveillance technique (ASCO, NCCN, ESMO), but a mammogram is less sensitive in the post-surgical period due to post-treatment changes (fat necrosis, surgical scars). Breast MRI is a highly sensitive imaging modality to detect local recurrence in certain patient groups. The purpose of this educational exhibit will be to learn the role of imaging methods and findings due to treatment and findings of recurrence in breast cancer surveillance patients.
