Abstract
Accurate imaging is important for patients diagnosed with locally advanced breast cancer for monitoring tumor size and guiding treatment decisions. Currently utilized standard imaging and clinical breast examinations are not always accurate. The purpose of this exhibit is to highlight non-contrast cone-beam breast computed tomography (CBBCT) as a promising modality for evaluating tumor response during and following neoadjuvant treatment of breast cancer.
