Ultrasound study for breast cancer tissue structure
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 20 and 90 years old.
- You have a breast lump or mass that can be seen on a standard ultrasound.
- Your breast mass has been given a BI-RADS score of 4a, 4b, 4c, 5, or 6.
- You do not have breast implants.
- You have not had a previous biopsy or surgery on that specific breast mass.
- You are not pregnant or currently breastfeeding.
- You can lie still for about 15 minutes and do not have a pacemaker or defibrillator.

This study explores a new way to process ultrasound images of the breast. It is for women who have a finding, cyst, mass, or calcifications seen on a mammogram or ultrasound, and it uses a special ultrasound technique that may provide clearer images without extra radiation.
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 is testing a new ultrasound device (ATUSA) to see how well it can image breast lesions that have been classified as suspicious (BI-RADS 4 or 5). If you have a recent finding that needs further evaluation, this research might help improve detection methods.
This study tests whether a special high-detail ultrasound can better show how breast cancer responds to chemotherapy given before surgery. It may help doctors tailor treatment and improve outcomes.
This study uses a special light-based imaging scan to learn more about breast masses and how tumors may respond to chemotherapy before surgery. The scan is meant to help doctors better characterize tumors and potentially track treatment response.
This study uses special ultrasound imaging (and may use MRI results) to look for early signs of how locally advanced breast cancer responds to chemotherapy, with or without radiation. If the imaging changes early, it could help doctors adjust treatment sooner.
