The Prone to Supine Breast MRI Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Prone to Supine MRI for Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 72 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a supine MRI obtained immediately after a standard diagnostic prone MRI exam, without a second injection of gadolinium (Gd) contrast material, would be of sufficient quality to allow the Radiologist to define the tumor edges ("segment" the tumor) so that a 3-D image of the tumor can be generated to form a BCL.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The patient will be placed in the prone position and undergo a standard Gd contrast-enhanced bilateral breast MRI. Immediately after the prone MRI is completed, the patient will be repositioned for the supine MRI. Prior to starting the prone MRI, the study MRI technician/investigator will explain to the patient and practice with the patient the steps needed to transition from the prone to the supine MRI, so as to facilitate a timely transition. Additional MRI images will only take about 10-15 minutes to obtain and will not require a second injection of contrast material.
