Multimodal Imaging With FAPI-PET/MRI in Breast Carcinoma-In-Situ for Detection of Occult Invasive Cancer

Description:

DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) is a common pre-stage for breast cancer. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if FAPI-PET/MRI (an imaging technique with a weakly radioactive drug) helps to diagnose hidden invasive breast cancer in participants with DCIS. The main question it aims to answer is: How good can FAPI-PET/MRI diagnose hidden invasive breast cancer in DCIS? Researchers will compare FAPI-PET/MRI results to tissue samples obtained from surgery treatment to see if the FAPI-PET/MRI images show invasive breast cancer certainly. Participants will * receive the radioactive drug and lie in an imaging device for 45 minutes including a break * visit the clinic once again for a checkup and test
