Weight gain in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) early-stage breast cancer: is it menopausal status or something else?

abstract：:Several authors question the potential benefit of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) against the background of possible overdiagnosis, false-positive findings, and unnecessary resections in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer. In order to reveal a better selection of patients who should undergo preo...
