Cone Beam Computed Tomography for Breast Imaging

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Breast Cancer
Interventions
Radiation: Computed Tomography
Registration Number
NCT00972413
Lead Sponsor
Koning Corporation
Brief Summary

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for breast imaging in the diagnostic setting by providing a compelling body of evidence incorporating both non-contrast and contrast enhanced CBCT in the study protocol. The goal is to accumulate a body of evidence to provide data to incorporate CBCT into the diagnostic work-up of breast lesions.
