62-year-old female with radiation-associated angiosarcoma of the right breast. She had a previous grade 1 invasive ductal carcinoma of the right breast 10 years earlier which was treated with breast-conserving surgery and radiotherapy. a Axial T2-weighted image shows unilateral cutaneous thickening with areas of high signal intensity (arrows) in the right breast. b Axial T1-weighted fat-suppressed pre-contrast image shows isointense thickening of the right breast compared to the left. c Axial T1-weighted fat-suppressed early post-contrast subtracted image shows multifocal areas of avid enhancement within the thickened cutaneous layer. d Photomicrograph of the skin of the breast shows small, compressed slightly angulated vessels with minimally atypical hyperchromatic ovoid to spindle nuclei, with nuclear debris. These vessels are seen to dissect the surrounding dermal collage (H and E, × 400)
