A Study of Tumor Imaging With Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography

A Feasibility Study of Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) Imaging in Patients With Tumors

Participants in this study will have Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography/MSOT imaging of both breasts immediately before their ultrasound-guided breast biopsy procedure begins. After the MSO imaging is completed, participation in the study will end.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Participant is a female or male who is 18 years of age or older.

• Participant must meet one of the following:

  • Suspicious breast imaging finding detected on either mammography, ultrasound, or MRI that is visible on ultrasound and therefore recommended for ultrasound-guided breast biopsy (BI-RADS 4 suspicious abnormality; BI-RADS 5, highly suggestive for malignancy)
  • No previous treatment for breast cancer
  • Diagnosis of melanoma

Exclusion Criteria:

• Life expectancy < 3 months
