Testing special MRI to see tiny breast cancer structures
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study is testing whether a special MRI scan can help show tiny features inside breast tumors (TMEM). It’s mainly a “feasibility” study, meaning the team is checking if the scan can be done safely and clearly in different types of operable breast cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and have a breast mass that is or could be invasive breast cancer
- Your tumor or breast mass is over 1 cm in size on imaging
- You must be able to get a research breast MRI with contrast (gadolinium) and still be safe to have MRI
- Your body can safely have MRI: no unsafe metal/implants and no serious claustrophobia
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and pregnancy testing must be negative within 7 days
- You should not have had past breast cancer or radiation to the same side, and you cannot have breast implants

This study compares a newer breast cancer risk approach with standard guidelines, and then uses a special MRI to look for cancer early. If the MRI looks concerning, doctors will confirm the finding with a biopsy.
This study tests selected treatment decisions for women with early-stage breast cancer that has certain lab test results. It may help researchers better match care using MRI and tumor marker information.
This study tests whether a special type of mammogram (contrast-enhanced mammography, or CEM) can help doctors see additional breast findings that show up on MRI. It may help avoid unnecessary extra biopsies or surgeries.
This study is testing whether adding an MRI to a normal mammogram can find more cancers in women with dense breasts. If you participate, you may benefit from extra monitoring and peace of mind.
This study uses a breast MRI scan to look at suspicious areas in the breast. It may help doctors better tell which breast changes need closer follow-up like a biopsy.
This study uses special PET/MRI scans to see how well breast cancer treatments are working. It aims to find better ways to monitor your cancer and guide your care.
