About This Trial
This comparative study will recruit 30 females who are scheduled for mammography and ultrasound assessment. The clinical 2D ultrasound is performed routinely, and the research portion of this study will add a few extra 3-D ultrasound images during the procedure. The ultrasound imaging laboratory under the direction of Dr. Aaron Fenster has developed a customized device designed to acquire 3D ultrasound of the breast using a commercial ultrasound machine. The purpose is to see how well 3-dimensional ultrasound acquire from that device is able to visualize tumours and other key features in comparison to the clinical system InveniaTM developed by GE Medical.
