About this study

Improved detection rates of DCIS in high-risk patients. Enhanced diagnostic accuracy, reducing false positives and negatives. Ductal Carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-invasive breast cancer where abnormal cells are confined to the milk ducts.

The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) is a standardized scoring system used to classify breast imaging findings. Scores range from 0 (incomplete) to 6 (known biopsy-proven malignancy)."

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • High-risk breast cancer patients with a family history of breast cancer or genetic predispositions (e.g., BRCA mutations).
  • Patients aged 30-65 years.
  • Patients willing to undergo breast MRI screening for DCIS detection.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with contraindications to MRI imaging (e.g., pacemakers, claustrophobia).
  • Patients with a history of prior breast surgery or interventions that may interfere with imaging interpretation.

Treatment and study plan

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Diagnostic Test

To Evaluate the breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in detecting Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) lesions among high-risk breast cancer patients while keeping the histopathology as a GOLD standard

Primary outcomes

  1. sensitivity & specificity

    Time frame: 12 Months

    sensitivity & specificity of MRI in detecting DCIS

  2. BIRADS scores

    Time frame: 12 Months

    BIRADS scores will be used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MRI in detecting DCIS
