SUMMARY
To compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with more well established diagnostic imaging techniques to determine which method best finds and defines breast cancer.
Eligibility
Participation Requirements
Sex: Female
Minimum Age: 21
Healthy Volunteers: t
View:
• Female
• Documented breast physical examination,
• Documented mammography within 3 months of the MR studies
• Palpable or mammographically-detected suspect breast lesions
