Summary

This trial is looking at whether a less expensive and more readily available diagnostic modality, namely CESM, is as effective as MRI in predicting the response of a malignant breast tumor to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the chances of achieving a pCR.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with breast cancer that hasn't spread far (no distant metastasis), measurable by examination. They must be undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, possibly with additional targeted therapy. Exclusions include pregnancy, allergies to contrast dye, MRI contraindications, overt hyperthyroidism, and significant kidney failure.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two imaging techniques—CESM and MRI—to see which better predicts the absence of invasive cancer cells in the breast and lymph nodes after early rounds of chemotherapy. This could help switch treatments sooner for those not responding well.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may relate to the use of contrast dyes during imaging tests such as allergic reactions or kidney issues. The MRI might not be suitable for people with certain implants or claustrophobia.
