Breast Elasticity Imaging During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NCT04824027)

Predicting Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Using Harmonic Motion Imaging in Women With Breast Cancer

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿฉบ Clinical Procedure Protocol Sponsor: Columbia University

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

For this study, the investigators propose investigation of a new imaging technique, Harmonic Motion Imaging (HMI), and the evaluation of its potential role in prediction of breast cancer response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). The investigators hypothesize that changes in HMI parameters will predict response to neoadjuvant systemic therapy in early-stage breast cancer.
