Summary

This study is testing whether MRI scans can detect brain metastases that cause no symptoms in people with aggressive breast cancer types (triple negative or HER2+ at stage IIb or III). About 100 participants will get a brain MRI, give a blood sample, and answer a questionnaire. The goal is to find out how common hidden brain spread is and how patients feel about the screening.
