AB  - Background/Aim: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided breast biopsy is a complex and time-consuming procedure. This study aimed to clarify the factors that affect the duration of the procedure. Patients and Methods: Twenty-eight examinations performed at our institute for 27 lesions detected solely on MRI were analyzed. The correlations between the clinicopathological factors and duration of the procedure were estimated. Results: The needle guidance method was the only factor that significantly affected the duration of the MRI-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VAB) (p=0.012). The use of a computer-aided detection (CAD) system with grid breast compression plates had significantly shorter durations (62±12 min) than the manual calculation of coordinates with pillar-type compression plates (76±13 min). Conclusion: This preliminary study showed that the use of a CAD system might shorten the duration of MRI-guided VAB.
