Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM) for the Evaluation and Targeted Biopsy of Suspicious Mammographic Architectural Distortions
This clinical trial examines a new imaging technology, contrast-enhanced mammography, in predicting breast cancer. Contrast-enhanced mammography is similar to standard mammography, but it includes an intravenous (by vein) injection of iodine-based contrast, which makes tissue and blood vessels more visible in scans. Contrast-enhanced mammography may work better in detecting cancer in the breast that is not seen on other imaging tests and may help doctors find the most suspicious areas of the breast to biopsy, which could increase the chances of finding breast cancer.
• Women with suspicious MADs recommended for a stereotactic biopsy who underwent their diagnostic imaging work-up resulting in a biopsy recommendation at MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) or at an outside facility with a technically acceptable quality of diagnostic mammography, and who are planning to have their biopsy at MDACC
• Age 25-85 years
• Willing to participate in the study, undergo an IV placement, able to undergo iodinated contrast injection, and able to provide informed consent
