First seen Jan 19, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a special type of mammogram called contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) can more accurately predict breast cancer in women with suspicious calcium spots in the breast. About 59 women with large areas of these spots will get both a standard and a contrast-enhanced mammogram before their biopsy. The goal is to see if CEM reduces unnecessary biopsies and better identifies which spots are truly cancerous.
