Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This purpose of this clinical study to develop and test technology associated with near infrared (NIR) optical tomography of the breast (the use of light at NIR wavelengths to image the breast) as an adjunct to mammography and breast MRI.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: MR-guided Near Infrared optical tomography
N/A

Detailed Description

The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate the feasibility of NIR absorption and fluorescence imaging of the female breast when the method is guided by breast MRI. The hypotheses to be tested are:

  1. MR-guided NIR absorption and fluorescence imaging of the breast is feasible in the setting of a clinical breast exam

  2. MR-guided NIR absorption and fluorescence imaging of the breast provides spatial localization and contrast of a breast abnormality that is superior to NIR absorption and fluorescence tomography alone.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: MR-guided NIR

Women with breast abnormalities will undergo an "optical exam" (NIR) in combination with MRI where the NIR light imaging system illuminates the breast from multiple positions covering the area of interest. A total of 60 women will be evaluated: 20 with breast abnormalities receiving gadolinium (Gd) contrast enhancement, 20 with breast abnormalities receiving both Gd-contrast enhancement and indocyanine green (ICG) contrast enhancement, and 20 healthy volunteers not receiving any contrast agents.

Diagnostic Test: MR-guided Near Infrared optical tomography

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Compare spatial localization and contrast images of breast abnormalities from MR-guided NIR absorption and fluorescence tomography to NIR absorption and fluorescence tomography alone [During imaging and evaluation by a radiologist or medical technologist, up to 90 minute]

    Women will participate in MR-guided NIR exams which include both MR and optical contrast agents. These imaging outcomes will be compared to exams where only the MR contrast agent is used as well as to exams where no contrast agents are administered.

WOMEN WITH BREAST ABNORMALITIES

Inclusion:
  1. Female, ≥ 20 years old.

  2. Breast size and epithelial integrity adequate to allow NIR imaging exams.

  3. Ability to provide written informed consent.

  4. No serious associated psychiatric illnesses.

  5. A recent screening mammogram that questions the presence of an abnormality, thus requiring further mammographic examination.

  6. Pregnancy

  7. A history of allergy to iodides

  8. A GFR < 30 ml/min as determined by blood test on the day of NIR/MR imaging, or from lab results within 3 months of NIR/MR imaging.
