Summary:
The investigators will study the financial, time, and psychologic benefit of Contrast
Enhanced Mammography (CEM) compared with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for breast
cancer evaluation and ultimately encourage practices and referring providers to use it
more routinely in practice.
Specific research objectives are to:
- determine financial costs of performing a CEM to breast MRI
- compare time costs involved with CEM to breast MRI
- compare psychologic costs involved with CEM to breast MRI.
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age > or equal to 30 years
- Clinically eligible for CEM or breast MRI
- Newly diagnosed cancer
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnant as verified by patient report. Given that this test is being performed for
clinical purposes, the determination of pregnancy status will be resolved via the
standard clinical pathway.
