3D ultrasound imaging for women with a breast lump
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests how well a new 3D ultrasound method can “see” a solid breast lump that is being biopsied. It may help doctors get clearer images to guide diagnosis, especially alongside a standard biopsy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman age 18 or older.
- You have a solid breast lump (lesion) that is being looked at with an ultrasound-guided biopsy.
- Your breast lump is at least 3 millimeters (3mm) wide.
- You can understand the study and give consent (or otherwise are able to consent).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You are not currently receiving cancer treatments like chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

This early-phase study tests a 3D ultrasound scan to see lymph nodes in people being evaluated for breast cancer. It may help doctors better image lymph nodes during routine care.
This study uses a special 3D ultrasound machine to look at breast lumps more closely. It may help doctors better understand breast masses without needing a biopsy.
This study tests whether special ultrasound pictures and “spectroscopy” measurements can help characterize breast masses that may be cancer. It may help doctors tell more about what a lump is and guide next steps.
This study uses a special ultrasound technique (VisR) to look at the structure of breast tissue and collagen in women with suspicious or known breast cancer. The goal is to see if this imaging can help doctors better understand breast cancer without needing a biopsy.
This trial tests if a portable ultrasound device can help quickly evaluate breast lumps found during a physical exam. It aims to improve screening in places where standard mammography may not be available.
This trial uses a special ultrasound with a contrast agent to get clearer images of breast lumps. It may help doctors decide if a lump needs a biopsy.
