Images obtained using a flexible surface coil for MRI breast imaging on a 1.5 T, GE Signa scanner. Uncorrected (left column), LCJ segmented (middle column), and corrected (right column) images are presented at a superior level of the breast (top row), midbreast (middle row), and inferior level of the breast (bottom row). Images in left and right columns are presented at identical contrast settings.
