New mammogram technology could offer MRI-Level screening to more women
NCT ID NCT04764292
Summary
This study tested whether contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) could work as an alternative screening method for women who need breast MRI but can't get one. Researchers enrolled 601 women who couldn't have MRI due to claustrophobia, medical implants, body size, or cost issues. The goal was to see if this newer mammography technique could detect cancers as effectively as MRI for these women.
