MRI study for dense breasts with a special imaging technique
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a type of MRI called Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) can more accurately identify breast issues in women with dense breast tissue. If you have dense breasts and have already had a breast MRI with DWI, this study may help improve future diagnosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 40 and 75 years old
- You have dense breast tissue as determined by your doctor using a standard classification system
- You have already had a breast MRI that included DWI scanning
- You have biopsy results available for any breast lesions found
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the MRI
- You have not had prior treatment for breast cancer before this imaging study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a newer imaging method, molecular breast imaging (MBI), to guide a breast biopsy. It may help people with dense breast tissue get a more accurate biopsy.
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 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 is testing whether adding an MRI to your regular mammogram can help find any new breast cancers earlier. It is for women who have had breast cancer before and still have dense breast tissue, making mammograms harder to read.
This trial tests a new, faster MRI technique (called ultra-high b-value DWI) to see if it can find breast cancer as well as the standard MRI. It is for women who have a suspicious breast finding (BIRADS 4a), are high risk, have suspicious lymph nodes, or have dense breasts and need an MRI.
This study uses a special type of MRI called diffusion-weighted imaging to help diagnose breast cancer and check on it after treatment. It is for women who have a breast lump or whose breast cancer has returned after chemotherapy or radiation.
