  • Description: Background The Ki-67 is a beneficial marker of tumor aggressiveness. It is proliferation index that has been used to distinguish luminal B from luminal A breast cancers. By fast progress in quantitative radiology modalities, tumor biology and genetics can be assessed in a more accurate, predictive, and cost-effective method. The aim of this study was to assess the role of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging and diffusion tensor imaging in prediction of Ki-67 status in patients with invasive breast carcinoma estimate cut off values between breast cancer with high Ki-67 status and those with low Ki-67 status. Results Cut off ADC (apparent diffusion co-efficient) value of 0.657 mm 2 /s had 96.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 93.8% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off maximum enhancement value of 1715 had 96.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 93.8% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off washout rate of 0.73 I/S had 60.7% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 62.5% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Cut off time to peak value of 304 had 71.4% sensitivity, 75% specificity and 71.9% accuracy in differentiating cases with high Ki67 from those with low Ki67. Conclusions ADC, time to peak and maximum enhancement values had high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in differentiating breast cancer with high Ki-67 status from those with low Ki-67 status.
