Abstract

•Background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) is the enhancement of breast tissue on MR imaging.•BPE is not associated with outcome in patients with breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).•In the NAC setting, BPE provides less information than tumor proliferation activity, type of surgery and nodal involvement.
