Predicting breast cancer risk with Chinese medicine and ultrasound
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses information from a breast ultrasound and traditional Chinese medicine checkups (tongue, pulse, face, body type) to build a tool that predicts breast cancer risk. It may help doctors better understand your personal risk and guide next steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a woman between 30 and 75 years old.
- You have a breast lump that needs a biopsy or surgery to find out what it is.
- You must have had your tongue, pulse, face, and body type checked using special Chinese medicine devices.
- You cannot have severe heart, liver, or kidney problems.
- You cannot have had any other cancer before this.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study checks certain genes using blood or mouth (oral) samples in people who already have breast cancer. The goal is to better understand genetic risk in Chinese communities and help guide future care.
This trial tests whether a special ultrasound measurement can help doctors choose the right chemotherapy plan during treatment for breast cancer. It may help avoid under- or over-treatment by adjusting care based on the ultrasound results.
This study checks whether a tablet-based ultrasound can find breast lumps that look suspicious for cancer. If it works well, it could help diagnose breast cancer faster in Nigeria where patients may need a biopsy or surgery next.
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.
This study uses a special 3D ultrasound and light-based scan to see if breast cancer is shrinking during chemo or chemoradiation before surgery. It may help doctors tell sooner whether the treatment is working.
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.
