New imaging combo could spot hidden breast cancers in dense tissue
NCT ID NCT03220893
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at over 3,000 women with dense breast tissue to see if adding molecular breast imaging (MBI) to standard digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) finds more invasive cancers. MBI uses a small amount of radioactive material to highlight active cells, like cancer. The goal is to improve early detection in women whose dense tissue can hide tumors on regular mammograms.
