Brief Summary: RATIONALE Diagnostic procedures such as magnetic resonance imaging MRI may help in learning how well chemotherapy works to kill breast cancer cells and allow doctors to plan better treatment Drugs used in chemotherapy such as epirubicin and docetaxel may stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Giving chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying MRI in evaluating early response to chemotherapy in women receiving chemotherapy for infiltrating breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Evaluate the feasibility reproducibility and repeatability of MRI for assessing tumor vascularity in women receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy for infiltrative breast cancer

Secondary

Compare the results obtained by semiquantitative measurement of vascularization MRI vs traditional empirical evaluation
Evaluate the MRI accuracy for the measurement of tumoral volume after completion of chemotherapy

OUTLINE This is an uncontrolled nonrandomized study

Patients receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy comprising epirubicin hydrochloride IV and docetaxel IV on day 1 Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients undergo dynamic-contrast MRI before treatment 3 weeks after the first course of chemotherapy and 3 weeks after the completion of chemotherapy They also undergo a bilateral mammogram and sonography and clinical examination

Within 22-35 days after completion of chemotherapy patients undergo breast-conserving surgical resection of tumor and lymph nodes or mastectomy

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study
