Wearable Ultrasound Patch for Breast Imaging (NCT07186491)

Exploring the Application of a Wearable Ultrasound (US) Patch Device for Breast Imaging

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital

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

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a wearable ultrasound (US) patch can provide reliable whole-breast imaging and accurately detect breast lesions in patients undergoing breast health evaluation. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How well does the US-patch detect breast lesions in breasts of different shapes, sizes, and tissue densities? * Are there any side effects or discomfort from using the US-patch? Researchers will compare results from the wearable US-patch to conventional ultrasound to see if the patch provides specific and sensitive findings. Participants will: * Have breast imaging performed with the wearable US-patch, which is applied directly to the breast and secured with a sports bra. * Use a guiding software application that helps correctly position the patch. * Complete the imaging session in less than 15 minutes, performed by study personnel.
