About this trial
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a breast ultrasound method for the diagnosis of breast cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as breast ultrasound, may help find and diagnose breast cancer, and may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment. The purpose of this research is to test the effectiveness of a new investigational breast ultrasound method to detect an abnormality in the breast, and assess response to breast cancer treatment.
