Official title

Contrast Enhanced Breast MRI: Comparison of Two Macrocyclic Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agents: Gadoterate Meglumine (Dotarem) and Gadobutrol (Gadavist). A Prospective Study.

Brief summary

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

In this randomized clinical trial, the investigators expect to demonstrate that the MRI contrast agent Dotarem is not less effective in contrast enhancement of breast lesions then Gadavist. Participants will be randomized to receive either Dotarem or Gadavist. In all cases, inclusion criteria will require patients having undergone or scheduled or most likely to be scheduled to undergo tissue sampling with histology results available. The patients will be prospectively and consecutively identified such that the majority of patients included will have been diagnosed with breast cancer, while including benign disease in the minority of patients in each arm. Following randomized enrollment, quantitative, semi-quantitative and qualitative image analysis will be performed to objectively assess for differences in image quality and diagnostic value.
