spacer   Purpose
The goal of the study is to compare the radiologist confidence level in evaluating patients with known breast lesions using a carbon nanotube x-ray based stationary breast tomosynthesis imaging device. The comparison will be made against conventional mammography acquired as a part of a standard clinical workup. One hundred patients who are to have a clinical surgical breast biopsy will be recruited for the study. A reader study will be performed to evaluate the ROC characteristics of the system.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Receiver Operative Curve (ROC) Area Under the Curve (AUC) (percentage) [ Time Frame: approximately 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Receiver Operative Curve (ROC) Area Under the Curve (AUC) analysis of the stationary breast tomosynthesis (SDBT) system for the the characterization of suspicious breast lesions in comparison to x-ray mammography.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Reader preference - arbitrary units [ Time Frame: approximately 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    To evaluate radiologists confidence in evaluating specific lesion characteristics in suspicious breast lesions. Readers will be scored from -3 to +3.


Estimated Enrollment: 100

Estimated Study Completion Date: June 2016
Estimated Primary Completion Date: October 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
Patients
Patients with a breast lesion undergoing surgical biopsy. All patients will undergo stationary Carbon Nanotube x-ray digital breast tomosynthesis imaging in addition to routine conventional digital mammography.
Device: Stationary Carbon Nanotube X-ray Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Scanner
All patients will undergo conventional imaging and imaging with the carbon nanotube based x-ray stationary digital breast tomosynthesis scanner device.
Other Name: Carbon nanotube based x-ray digital breast tomosynthesis (CNT SDBT) Scanner

spacer   Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:   Female
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Sampling Method:   Non-Probability Sample
Study Population
Patients undergoing surgical breast biopsies for lesions detected on mammograms.
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women at least 18 years old.
  • Scheduled for breast biopsy of at least one breast lesion.
  • Lesion detected on mammogram.
  • Symptomatic by patient self-report, patient self-breast exam or clinical exam.
  • Able to provide informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Male. (It is uncommon for men to present for imaging and the overwhelming majority of findings are non-cancerous and do not lead to biopsy; male breast cancer represents <1% of newly diagnosed breast cancer)
  • Less than 18 years of age.
  • Patient unable to give consent.
  • Institutionalized subject (prisoner or nursing home patient).
  • Any woman who is pregnant or has reason to believe she is pregnant or any woman who is lactating
