NCT ID:
NCT01852032
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare the imaging performance of an investigational breast computed tomography (CT) scanner, built at UC Davis, with that of an FDA-Approved breast tomosynthesis scanner (capable of producing standard 2-D mammography and 3-D tomosynthesis images), built by Hologic, Incorporated, in a group of patients with suspected breast cancer.
Detailed Description:
The primary aim of this study is the comparison of Beta values of several different CT and Tomosynthesis views (Beta of CT Sagittal View, Beta of CT Coronal View, Beta of CT Axial View, Beta of Tomosynthesis Craniocaudal View, Beta of Tomosynthesis Medial Lateral Oblique View). Lower Beta values correspond to better image quality (less noise, increased cancer detection).
