Study Summary

This research study is evaluating whether the use of digital breast tomosynthesis and near-infrared tomographic optical breast imaging (DBT-TOBI) scans can predict the response of triple negative or HER2+ breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The study radiologic scan involved in this study is digital breast tomosynthesis (also called 3 Dimensional mammogram) combined with near-infrared tomographic optical breast imaging, or DBT-TOBI.

Primary Outcome

The primary aim is to evaluate whether early measurements of the total hemoglobin concentration ratio in the primary tumor vs. the surrounding tissue, as estimated by our DBT-TOBI system, can predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response at the time of surgery. Measurements will be obtained at baseline and just before cycle 3 to determine whether DBT-TOBI is predictive of pathological complete response (pCR) versus non-complete response for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) positive an
