Brief Summary: RATIONALE Diagnostic procedures such as MRI may help diagnose breast cancer It may also help doctors predict a patients response to treatment
PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying breast MRI in women with known or suspected breast cancer and in healthy participants
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES
Develop and combine advanced quantitative multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging methods ie dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI DCE-MRI diffusion-weighted MRI DW-MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopy MRS to characterize breast tumors in women with known or suspected breast cancer Identify surrogate biomarkers that can guide diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer using these methods Correlate biochemical information obtained from magnetic resonance analysis with clinical radiologic and pathologic findings in these patients Establish an imaging data bank that includes information on DCE-MRI DW-MRI and MRS findings in these patients and in healthy participants
OUTLINE Quantitative multi-parametric magnetic imaging methods will be employed for breast imaging for the following subjects
Group A Healthy volunteers who undergo up to 3 breast MRIs over 6 weeks Group B Patients diagnosed with breast cancer who will 1 undergo preoperative breast MRI followed by definitive surgery or 2 undergo MRI prior to initiating neoadjuvant chemotherapy at 1-2 weeks after initiation of chemotherapy and prior to definitive surgery
Clinical information including radiologic and pathologic data on all patients is collected for inclusion in the imaging data bank
After completion of the study patients and healthy participants are followed periodically
