About

This study is being done to determine if a clinically available MRI sequence called ZTE imaging better visualizes breast biopsy markers made of bone cement compared to the currently used breast biopsy markers made of metal.

Full description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To demonstrate that clinically available ZTE imaging allows for better visualization of bone cement breast biopsy markers when compared to conventional breast biopsy markers and pulse sequences.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Participants undergo standard of care MRI breast imaging with conventional or bone cement breast biopsy markers and complete a questionnaire on study.

Enrollment: 20 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
