Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Objective a. The primary objective of this study is to perform a prospective clinical trial to compare the performance of CEBCT to that of the MRI for staging of women with breast cancer. The endpoint is a statistically significant difference in the accuracy of tumor size estimation with CEBCT and MRI computed from the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) resulting from independent interpretation of MRI images and the CEBCT images. Objective b. The primary objective of this study is to perform a prospective clinical trial to compare the performance of CEBCT to that of the MRI for the evaluation of residual tumor in women who have undergone primary systemic therapy. The endpoint is a statistically significant difference in the accuracy of tumor size estimation with CEBCT and MRI computed from the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) resulting from independent interpretation of MRI images and the CEBCT images. | — |

|---|---|
| As secondary objectives, we will record the frequency of contralateral cancers and their final pathological outcome, morphological and enhancement characteristics of cancers on CEBCT complementary to existing subtyping. | — |
