Official title

Low-Dose Tamoxifen to Reduce High Background Parenchymal Uptake on Molecular Breast Imaging

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The study will examine whether changes in background parenchymal uptake (BPU) on molecular breast imaging (MBI) can be induced by short-term use of low-dose tamoxifen. Women who have previously had high BPU on MBI will be recruited. Participants will take low-dose tamoxifen for a 30-day period, with post-tamoxifen MBI in order to investigate the impact of tamoxifen on BPU.
