CESM contrast mammogram screening for dense breasts
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a newer kind of breast screening scan that uses a special dye (contrast) to better show breast tissue. It may help people with very dense breasts get clearer screening images.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman age 40 to 69
- You had a mammogram in the last 24 months that was read as normal (BI-RADS 1 or 2)
- Your last mammogram showed heterogeneously dense or extremely dense breast tissue
- You are already scheduled for a routine screening mammogram
- You have no history of allergy to iodinated contrast dye

This study tests whether a special type of mammogram (contrast-enhanced) can better spot cancer in people whose regular mammogram or ultrasound found a suspicious area. It may help avoid unnecessary biopsies.
This trial compares two imaging tests—CESM (a contrast-enhanced mammogram) and DBT (3D mammography)—to see which works best for women with dense breast tissue. It may help improve how early breast changes are found in dense breasts.
This study looks at whether contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) can find breast cancer better in women who have dense breast tissue and a personal history of breast cancer. If you've had breast cancer before and have dense breasts, this trial could help improve early detection.
This study tests how well a special mammogram with contrast can help assess breast cancer risk in women with dense breast tissue. It may help improve screening planning, especially when standard mammograms are harder to read due to density.
This study tests whether getting a contrast-enhanced mammogram (CEM) every two years is effective for detecting breast cancer in women who have had breast cancer before. If you qualify, you will receive CEM instead of a standard mammogram to see if it helps find cancer earlier.
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.
