Brief Summary:
The trialed investigational medical imaging device is a low-power microwave breast imaging system for cancer screening purposes. It is an active device which uses non-ionizing radiation.
Microwave imaging is an emerging imaging modality for the early detection of breast cancer. The physical basis of microwave imaging is the dielectric contrast between healthy and cancerous breast tissues at the microwave frequency spectrum.
This study is a pilot Clinical Evaluation of a microwave imaging system (Wavelia #2) for Breast Cancer Detection. The clinical data that will be collected in the context of this study is intended for the assessment of the imaging diagnostic capability and the safety of the investigational device.
Detailed Description:
This study aims to enrol approximately 103 subjects presenting to the symptomatic breast unit with a breast abnormality who consent to undergo an Microwave Breast Imaging (MWBI) scan using the Wavelia #2 imaging system. The study uses an adaptive design to verify and validate the technical evolutions that have been integrated in the Wavelia# 2 prototype on a small patient dataset (30 patients). Once the technical performance has been established recruitment will continue to assess the clinical performance of the MBI system compared to standard of care reference imaging. The primary objectives of the study are to assess the performance of Wavelia # 2 in the detection of malignant and benign breast lesions, the sizing of malignant lesions for which post-surgery histology data will be available and the differentiation between benign and malignant breast abnormalities by means of features extracted from the MBI images.
