We are doing this study because we want to find out if a new kind of breast imaging (called upright dedicated breast CT or UBCT) can help doctors to see the small structures in breast tissue more clearly in 3-D and without overlap.
The breast imaging device we will use in this study (UBCT) is not FDA-approved, so this is a research study. The machine has been designed to remove mammography-like breast compression and use radiation dose comparable to mammography. The breast CT device will take multiple x-ray pictures of the subjects breast in approximately 20 seconds and create a 3-D image of the breast. It does not compress or squish the breast like a mammogram.
