Comparing contrast mammogram vs MRI for high-risk breast cancer surveillance
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial compares two advanced imaging methods—contrast-enhanced mammography and MRI—to see which is better for detecting breast cancer early in women at high risk. If you are at high risk and have not had breast cancer before, this study could help guide your future screening.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 35 and 60 years old.
- You have a high risk of developing breast cancer, estimated by a doctor using a standard risk model or because you had chest radiation therapy.
- You have never had breast cancer.
- You are not pregnant.
- You have not had both breasts removed.
- You are willing to be followed for at least 2.5 years.

This trial compares a special mammogram with dye (CEDM) to MRI for women already diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. The goal is to see if CEDM works as well as MRI for planning surgery, potentially offering a faster or easier option.
This study compares two ways of imaging the breast—molecular breast imaging (a scan that uses a small radioactive tracer) and standard breast MRI—to better find or rule out breast cancer. You may join if you are considered high risk and already have a breast MRI planned, and you can do both tests close together.
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 compares two advanced breast imaging methods—contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and breast MRI—to see which is better at finding cancer, especially in women with dense breasts or unclear mammogram results. If you are being referred for one of these exams, you may be able to join and help doctors learn which test works best.
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 trial compares different imaging schedules after breast-conserving surgery for people with a higher risk of recurrence. It tests whether more frequent or different types of scans can catch any return of cancer earlier.
