🎓 Take-Home Points ✅ Report all 10 descriptors — surgical and radiation planning both depend on them ✅ Fat plane + cortical/medullary signal changes = the most reliable invasion clues (not abutment alone) ✅ Signal intensity/enhancement pattern is not a reliable predictor of benign/malignant status or grade ✅ Flag MRI–pathology discordance — it can change management (genetic testing, re-sampling) ✅ Always compare post-treatment scans with the original pretreatment exam, not just the most recent one ✅ Margin type (tissue) beats margin size (cm) in surgical planning "MRI doesn't just find the mass — it tells the surgeon exactly what has to come with it."
