Using Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy With MRI to Non-invasively Determine Breast Cancer Extent of Disease

NCT00312637 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2012-05-01

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging of the axilla with spectroscopy can identify nodal features suggestive of metastatic involvement in patients diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. This may enable us to define a select group of patients for whom axillary lymph node dissection could be avoided.
