Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Breast Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: new software sequences, FIESTA and Vibrant-DE and IDEAL
Registration Number
NCT00579800
Lead Sponsor

women undergoing routine breast MRInew software sequences, FIESTA and Vibrant-DE and IDEALConventional images will be taken using the standard sequences consisting of T2-weighted imaging and T1-weighted imaging before and after contrast; these will be used for the diagnostic examination. FIESTA will be performed on 50 patients, while Vibrant-DE and IDEAL will be performed on the other 50 patients.
