New scan aims to sharpen breast cancer picture for treatment
NCT ID NCT03212170
Summary
This study tested a new type of combined PET/MRI scan to see if it could accurately measure a specific hormone receptor in breast cancer tumors. Researchers enrolled 21 women with newly diagnosed breast cancer to see if the scan results matched the results from a standard tissue biopsy. The goal was to improve the tools doctors use to understand a tumor's characteristics and plan treatment.
