Brief Summary

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

his clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and diagnostic accuracy of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) in breast MRI for women with dense breast tissue. DWI is investigated as an adjunctive method to improve early tumor detection in women with dense breasts, a group at high risk for delayed diagnosis due to limited visibility in mammography.

Study Purpose:

To assess the utility of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) in improving diagnostic accuracy for patients with dense breasts.

* Pregnant or breastfeeding women at the time of imaging.
* Presence of metallic implants or other MRI-incompatible devices.
* Patients with incomplete imaging datasets (e.g., missing DWI sequences or non-standardized protocols).
* Prior history of breast cancer treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy) before the imaging study.
