简要总结
The main objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility of DLSCT to detect breast cancer in women with dense breasts.
Patients with locoregional advanced primary breast cancer and heterogeneously (n = 7) or extremely dense breasts (n = 7) as determined by mammography will be included in this study. These patients have an indication for a positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET-CT) scan to search for distant metastases. In this study the participants will undergo an additional contrast enhanced DLSCT scan to determine the feasibility of spectral CT to detect breast cancer in women with dense breasts.
