a– c: Example cancer case from the dataset. This 25mm diameter Grade 2 carcinoma of no special type (oestrogen receptor positive, progesterone receptor equivocal, Her2 receptor negative and Ki67: 20%) was occult mammographically (a) because it was obscured by mammographically dense fibroglandular tissue. It was seen only subtly on the maximum intensity projection (MIP) image of the FAST MRI (b) as it was partially obscured by background parenchymal enhancement (BPE). However, it is clearly seen as a rim enhancing mass on the FAST MRI stack of slices (c), indicated by a yellow arrow. It was correctly identified as a cancer by 17/17 Group 1 readers and 17/20 Group 2 readers during this study.
