Use of an Interactive 3D Tool During Consultation for Breast Reconstruction Surgery

Incorporating Three-Dimensional Visualization in Breast Reconstruction Consultation

The purpose of this study is to find out whether using an interactive 3D tool during a standard surgical consultation can lead to greater patient satisfaction with the information provided about breast reconstruction options than the standard consultation alone. The study researchers will also assess whether women whose surgical consultation includes the use of the 3D tool are more satisfied with their breasts and with the decisions they made about their reconstruction procedure.

• Planning to undergo mastectomy at time of consultation
