MONOCENTRIC PERSPECTIVE STUDY: USE OF LIQUID BIOPSY WITH DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING

PERSPECTIVE MONOCENTRIC STUDY: USE OF LIQUID BIOPSY AND DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING IN THE SEARCH FOR CIRCULATING TUMOR DNA IN PATIENTS WITH BREAST CANCER

Evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of Mammography in the morpho-structural analysis of mammographic images in breast cancer-diagnosed patients or patients in follow-up for breast cancer by extracting a number of features describing the texture and morphology of the lesions reported in the form of a structured report explicitly developed for the study. Correlation of the data obtained from evaluating the primary endpoint with the genetic/molecular analysis on liquid biopsy.

Inclusion Criteria:

• full information on the study and signature of the informed consent
• biopsy-proven breast cancer or previous surgery for breast cancer
• willingness of the patient to undergo liquid biopsy

Exclusion Criteria:

• state of pregnancy or breastfeeding
• patients operated on for benign or inflammatory diseases
