Clinical Trials

The short-term goal of the proposed research is to develop a new method for viscoelasticity imaging of breast that can work with any type of wave, and not restricted to plane shear waves.

The long-term goal of this project is to develop an ultrasound-based breast imaging technique to improve the diagnostic specificity in breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of diagnosis with contrast enhanced digital mammography when used in addition to standard mammography or ultrasound in patients with suspicious findings.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can be used in diagnostic evaluation of breast lesions that cannot be seen using contrast-enhanced MRI (CEMR) and contrast- enhanced dual energy mammography (CEDM).   If so, patients can undergo US guided biopsy which is more comfortable for patients and more cost effective.

The purpose of this study is to to better understand the concerns of patients prior to a breast biopsy so that we may improve our practice and ultimately enhance overall patient experience.
