Can microwave images help in follow-up breast imaging?
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new, non-invasive microwave imaging device to see if it can provide helpful information for women who need extra breast imaging after a mammogram or ultrasound. The goal is to compare the microwave images with standard clinical information to improve future breast cancer screening.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are female and between 18 and 74 years old.
- You have had a mammogram or breast ultrasound within the last 6 weeks.
- Your doctor asked you to come back for more breast imaging because the results were rated BIRADS 3, 4, or 5.
- You are not currently being treated for breast cancer and have not had treatment in the last 6 months.
- You do not have breast implants, nipple piercings (unless removed for the scan), or an implanted electronic device.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or have an active breast skin infection.

This study uses a microwave scanner to take pictures of breast implants. It aims to see if the scanner can detect ruptures and may provide a safer alternative to other imaging methods.
This study tests a new, safe microwave-based device (MammoWave) to screen for breast cancer. It compares the device's results with standard mammograms to see if it can find cancer early in women at average risk.
This study checks how well MammoWave can help detect breast lesions (areas that may be abnormal) using imaging. It may help doctors confirm findings by combining it with other scans when needed, and sometimes with biopsy results.
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 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 tests a new type of mammogram that might give clearer pictures of breast tissue. It is for women who are either scheduled for breast surgery or getting a regular mammogram.
