MRI is expensive and requires special equipment and technicians, making it less accessible to everyone. Another limitation of MRI is that it cannot detect calcium deposits in the female breast that could be a symptom of breast cancer. That said, MRI is useful in many breast cancer-related diagnoses, such as MRI-guided localization needle biopsy and MRI-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy.

Breast-specific gamma imaging. As we have established the challenges of diagnosing dense breasts using traditional mammography. Breast-specific gemma imaging (BGMI) is another technique to overcome this challenge. Rather, it is a physiological method emphasizing the autonomic system for diagnosis. This technique uses a radioactive drug Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi injected intravenously and a high-resolution gamma camera specially designed for the breasts. Diagnosis is based on comparison of radiotracer uptake between normal and cancer
