Summary

This study tests whether a special PET scan (FES PET/CT) can improve detection and treatment planning for brain metastases in people with estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer. About 20 participants will receive the scan before standard radiation therapy and be followed for 12 months. The goal is to see if the scan provides clearer images and changes treatment decisions compared to standard MRI alone.
