Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overall objective of this clinical study is to determine the feasibility of breast CT for breast density assessment and association of CT-derived density measures with metabolic syndrome in overweight/obese Mexican-origin women in Southern Arizona. These evaluations will help support follow-up clinical research utilizing breast density acquired by breast CT as a surrogate endpoint biomarker to evaluate breast cancer preventive strategies. The long-term goal of these research efforts is to develop safe and effective preventive strategies to reduce obesity-associated breast cancer burden in our catchment area.
