- To compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with more well established diagnostic imaging techniques to determine which method best finds and defines breast cancer. [Time frame: Length of one MRI scan]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Female
- Documented breast physical examination,
- Documented mammography within 3 months of the MR studies
- Palpable or mammographically-detected suspect breast lesions
- Women who have already undergone lumpectomy for breast cancer and have post-biopsy/post-radiation changes will be eligible if they have mammographically-detected or palpable breast abnormalities which are sufficiently suspicious to merit core needle or surgical biopsy.
