Imaging to Identify Lymph Nodes and Limit Lymph Node Removal for Women with Stage III Inflammatory Breast Cancer
Refining Local-Regional Therapy for Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) Scientific Title
Purpose
To identify the first lymph nodes that drain the breast to limit lymph node removal and reduce the risk of lymphedema in women with inflammatory breast cancer.
Who is this for?
Women with stage III inflammatory breast cancer who have not yet received treatment.

MRI-Based Imaging Technique to Distinguish Recurrent Brain Metastases from Radiation Damage
Treatment Response Assessment Maps (TRAMs) in the Delineation of Radiation Necrosis From Tumor Progression After Stereotactic Radiation in Patients With Brain Metastases: A Prospective Study Scientific Title
Purpose
To study whether Treatment Response Assessment Maps, a brain imaging technique, can help distinguish between a metastatic recurrence and tissue damage from prior radiation.
Who is this for?
People with metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Participants must have had a metastatic recurrence at least 4 months after radiation to the same site in the brain and planning to undergo surgery.
