The performance cohort will prospectively enroll approximately 341 subjects with a suspected breast cancer that will undergo as part of standard of care an ultrasound-guided breast biopsy procedure, including placement of HydroMARK, with an aim of achieving a minimum 239 evaluable subjects (assuming 30% attrition rate due to surgical excision prior to follow-up, lost to follow-up, death) returning to the office at 6-12 weeks for ultrasound imaging to evaluate HydroMARK visibility.
The visibility rate will be dichotomized into two categories from rankings using a 1-5 Likert-type scale - 1 "no/inadequate visibility" and 2 "slightly visible", 3 "moderately visible", 4 "very visible" and 5 "extremely visible" will be coalesced into a single category of "being visible".
