About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Breast Cancer focused on measuring Dense breast tissue, breast cancer screening, molecular breast imaging, breast cancer, breast
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Past prior screening mammogram within the previous 11-24 months interpreted as heterogeneously dense or extremely dense and negative or benign [Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) Category 1 or 2]
Exclusion Criteria:
Subjects will be excluded if they:
- Are unable to understand and sign the consent form
- Are pregnant or lactating
- Are physically unable to sit upright and still for 40 minutes
- Have self-reported signs or symptoms that may suggest breast cancer (palpable mass, bloody nipple discharge, axillary mass, etc.)
- Have had needle biopsy within 3 months, or breast surgery or radiation within 1 year prior to the study
- Are currently receiving chemotherapy or tamoxifen, raloxifene, or an aromatase inhibitor for adjuvant therapy or chemoprevention
- Have undergone bilateral mastectomy
- Have had a prior MBI within 20 months of scheduled study MBI.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Molecular Breast Imaging
Arm Description
Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI) utilizes small high resolution gamma camera detectors in a dual-detector configuration to image the breast following the administration of a radiopharmaceutical that accumulates preferentially in breast tumors.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI) scan
The Year 0 MBI will be interpreted in isolation, with the radiologist blinded to Year 0 mammogram results and all relevant clinical information.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI) scan
The Year 2 MBI will be interpreted in comparison with the Year 0 MBI but in isolation from the Year 2 mammogram.
