Phase N/A

This study is testing a new way to screen for breast cancer using something called KBCT, which stands for Koning Breast Computed Tomography. Computed Tomography (CT) is a type of x-ray that takes pictures of your body from different angles to create a detailed image. This study will involve up to 1028 women aged 40 and above. The study will use KBCT scans, which will happen within 4 weeks of a regular breast x-ray (called a mammogram). Women who have had a breast operation will only have one breast scanned. This study is only for women because men rarely get breast cancer. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or weigh over 440 pounds, you cannot participate. The KBCT scan involves lying on a table while a machine takes many pictures of your breast. The scan helps doctors see the breast more clearly than regular x-rays. This study hopes to find cancers more easily and with clearer images.

  • Women aged 40 and above can join.
  • Scans are done within 4 weeks of a regular mammogram.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women can't participate.
