Active clinical trials for "Breast Diseases"

In this study, participants, who are scheduled to have a breast biopsy, will have several extra spot mammogram images taken of the suspicious area. These images will be acquired with varying levels of compression. The images will then be analyzed to determine whether the type of lesion (malignant or benign) can be determined from the image data alone. The biopsy results will be used as a gold standard to determine the true malignancy status

The investigators will evaluate the analgesic efficacy of pulsed radiofrequency on the thoracic paravertebral nerves for patients with chronic mastalgia of fibrocystic disease of the breast

The main goal of this project is to assess the ability of a recently developed Breast Microwave Imaging (BMI) system to detect abnormalities in a human breast. These trials will be performed by recruiting fourteen volunteers that have been diagnosed with breast abnormalities using x-ray mammography. The breast presenting the abnormality will be imaged using the BMI system in a controlled and comfortable environment. As this is a feasibility study of the technology, and has the main goal to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of this technology. The data collected from this study will be used to: (1) evaluate the overall participant experience during the BMI imaging procedure, (2) optimize the design of the BMI imaging system (both hardware and software), (3) open discussions with other medical professionals (e.g. radiologists) about the clinical feasibility of this emerging diagnostic imaging modality.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the success rate, insertion time and complication depending on the use of neuromuscular blocking agent when inserting the laryngeal mask airway (LMA).

Compare lesion detection of the automated breast ultrasound (ABVS) exam with the conventional handheld (HH) breast ultrasound (US) exam.

Subjects with suspicious breast lesion (BIRADS category 4/5) who are scheduled to undergo biopsy will be recruited to undergo imaging evaluation with Contrast Enhanced Dual Energy Mammography (CEDM), Contrast Enhanced Breast MR (CEMR) and Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS).

To determine the feasibility of cryotherapy for B3 fibroepithelial lesions

The BR-USCAD DS Module is a computer-assisted detection and diagnosis software based on a deep learning algorithm. This retrospective, fully-crossed, multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) study aims to compare the performances of readers without and with the aid of the Breast Ultrasound Image Reviewed with Assistance of Computer-Assisted Detection and Diagnosis System (BR-USCAD DS) in interpreting breast ultrasound images of lesions.

The purpose of this study is to compare conventional breast imaging and diagnostic work-up (2 dimensional imaging) to digital breast tomosynthesis (3 dimensional imaging) in the appearance of non-calcified breast masses. It is thought that non-calcified breast masses will be better visualized with the new 3D technology.
